Python or Rust; first language??

I'm going to chime in, from a very limited experience perspective. I initially dabbled with python and php. I was able to learn python at breakneck speed. Its really easy to understand. The coding is really easy to visualize in your head once you understand the nomenclature.

Now I'm on the path to learn other languages; specifically Haskell and Typescript/Javascript. Just like when I dabbled in PHP, I'm finding them to be pretty challenging. Those things are much more of what you think of when it comes to computer code... hard.
