I'm pretty sure the second there is a significantly better alternative that offers the same flexibility and control, plenty of people will jump.
Same for C++.
Assuming everyone else is an idiot leads nowhere worth going.

https://ziglang.org/ is a solid future C-replacement, IMHO. There's pretty much no downsides and all upsides from a C hacker's perspective. It just hasn't reached 1.0 yet!
Zig is a nice language, but from a 10000 ft view it's not fundamentally different from C (thankfully) - at least from the CPU's point of view. Any hardware that's a good match for C is also a good match for Zig.
