I don't know, people like Mitchell Hashimoto and Tobi Lütke are taking Zig seriously for systems programming. Coil are also investing in writing a new distributed financial database for Zig—considering the trajectory of the language and the lifetime of our project, it made sense.
Of course the swell is early, but waves are what technology is about, and the surfers are there and paddling out. It's a great time to be getting involved, especially for greenfield projects that have some time in themselves to reach stability and don't want to pay a language compiler/complexity tax for the rest of the project's lifetime.
You could also throw a dart blindfolded into the Zig community and be pretty sure to hit some seriously talented programmers to learn from. If you're investing in a deep understanding of the language now, I'm pretty sure it will pay off down the line.
