For me, it's -

1) Red - Small in size; Readable, compact and concise code. Its a powerful All-in-One Package with lots of great features as well as easy for newcomers. It can be used for low level as well as high level programming.

2) Rust - Its powerful concepts of borrowing and ownership, and its tight security features are just great. But its kinda verbose.

3) Nim - Clean, readable code. Fast compile times as well as compiled code. Lots of good ideas in it. Different gc's for different use cases are great.

I am a big fan of Nim. It's one of the few languages that gets me excited lately as it feels like you can do pretty much anything that you could do in C++ but in simplified code and shorter dev times.

Can red compile GUI apps in MacOS? I just tried and it errored out..

The current 0.6.0 release contains only Windows GUI. Linux and OSX support are a work in progress. Lots of stuff implemented, lots still missing. You can download qtxie's branch with the WIP code here - https://github.com/qtxie/red/tree/MacOSX-GUI?files=1 Read the Readme file for instructions on how to compile red code using sources.
