I would want a language I can run natively on every platform with the syntax of Swift/Kotlyn.

I'm not sure what you mean - Swift and Kotlin can both do exactly that. Swift works best on macOS, obviously, but it can run fine on Windows and Linux. Kotlin runs on the JVM, so it gets cross-platform support for free.
There is one area that is pretty large when it comes to engineering effort, and that's on the web (currently dominated by JavaScript).
