I defiantly had a far easier time learning c and apply my existing programming knowledge. Getting my head around the borrow checker was one hell of a pain in the ass.

What specifically was difficult to understand about the borrow checker? Much of what the borrow checker requires you to do are things that you still need to do in C just without compiler support.
