Zig seems promising too! But it’s still LLVM based (?), which seems to be a limitation in the embedded world. Nim’s templates/macros are nice for fiddly stuff.

Not sure how Zig handles places where compile time macros can make things nice. Yah I figure in ~5 years Rust might be better positioned in embedded work as a goto solution.
