Sorry to hear, hope the recovery is smooth and speedy!

Thank you for your hard work on this project! It's a joy to use

Are you shipping these devices commercially or is it all for internal consumption/R&D? I do worry about the stability of certain subsystems (e.g embassy boot) and vendor support hiccups. That being said most of the embedded code I see from vendors is already horrific so how much worse can it get LOL

Absolutely

Yeah I felt the same way. Though what's really nice about it is that if you have the time you can implement device tree driver ports for the vendor peripherals and then you can make your code quite a bit more portable. Now have I ever actually used zephyr code in a portable way.... I plead the fifth

That makes sense. The next project I'm doing should be relatively straightforward and use a very limited set of the radio features, so I think it should be quick to spin up a proof of concept with Embassy and see how I feel about it long term.

Zephyr is okay and I can live with it. It's better than most of the other RTOS's I've used, but west is not my favorite (really does not follow any GNU principles at all) and it's easy to write code that eventually explodes via a memory issue between threads (like in all RTOSes)

I might be totally wrong here but you can mix the closed source radio blobs (like nrf's softdevice) with the pure Rust HALs right? If so I think it's still quite compelling. I really love Rust for normal application development and Embassy for embedded seems like a match made in heaven

This makes me really sad to hear. I was thinking about trying to switch future embedded systems projects at work to Rust but am a little worried about the potential toolchain hell that awaits me. I mostly deal with Nordic these days so I'm unsure if that's any better than ESP as far as rust support.

This is a very annoying reply so I apologize in advance but: consider Go! If you know python you can pick it up very quickly and imo it's more ergonomic & definitely more performant than both TS and python!
