I'm happy for Zig to gain support for one major reason: Zig does not engage in "woke" culture the way Rust does.

Zig seems to take a neutral, technical-first stance, while Rust has a strong focus on inclusivity, strict moderation, and social policies like with the foundation drama (which is just nonsense for a programming language).

I really wish Nim would have won the language wars though.
