Memory Safety in C# vs. Rust

Noticed how C# is underrated. About memory safety in C#. How difficult to introduce multi-paradigm memory safety approach like Rust? Ownership model for example, would it be possible to enforce practice via some-sort of meta framework?

C# is underrated because it only works well on Windows and has bad frameworks such as .NET.

There isn't really any reason to use it outside of developing Windows native applications. There are much better cross-platform languages, with a bigger community and better support.

Almost every statement is incorrect. Your knowledge of the .NET ecosystem seems to be about ten years out of date.
