Unfortunately the current trend among new languages seems to be eschewing GC; a clear mistake IMO — we don't really need yet another low-level systems programming language, but we badly need the go-to GC'd lang — one that'd take the faults of Java and Go into account.
There is lots of languages that already do that: Kotlin, Dart, typescript, OCaml, D, Haskell and the list goes on! Non GC languages OTOH are rare and we absolutely need more of them!
