I don't find Red particularly readable, it is a bit too dense for my taste. But some people will love it, and they have a very active Gitter group, and they are very nice people.

Red is the best funded language that i know of. Nenad did an initial coin offering (ICO) that was successful, and by my estimates will never have to work again. He has a good-sized team, and is building a very powerful product. Don't confuse his frugality with the financial independence he possesses due to his good timing at jumping onto the crypto bandwagon.

I don't know how you describe Rebol/Red. It a language made out of various subdomain specific languages, with a very unique syntax. It is very brief, and to me looking at it from a distance it more resembles FORTH or Postscript than any Algol derivative language.

Red has not prioritized graphical interactive products. I think its best subsystem is its amazing PARSE module, which is second only to Icon in text processing power.

There are other interesting projects like Enso, but they will probably run out of money, but i will wager Red will still be going strong 10 years from now.
