> then Jakt, their own novel programming language, because neither C++ nor Rust is what makes him perfectly happy.
TBH Jakt defaults to reference counting, which makes it compete more with Swift and Go rather than C/C++/Rust.

That being said I've seen a few people here suggest it's easier to use rust's Rc and Box for everything and treat it like Haskell or Scala. So it might not be so different in practice.
(Though to be fair reference counting can be considered a rather rudimentary way of doing garbage collection.)
