Zig is really starting to grow on me, it’s basically an unfucked C (screw you, macros) and you can translate C into Zig code…and it has comptime, very nice! I don’t have the patience for Rust in my hobby projects and the standalone-ness of Zig is perfect for embedded/systems programming. it definitely needs to mature more before the masses start taking it seriously, but goddamn it’s nice to code in.

Rust and Zig are currently my favorite languages.
