Like stated, zig isn’t stable yet. And in general the kit isn’t on a good level yet to replace C in Linux.

And, there’s still no good and fast allocator:

Kernel code shouldn't need a 'good and fast' allocator though, since preferably it shouldn't heap-allocate in the first place, or at least not frequent enough that allocator performance matters.

You’re correct - was just something which is stopping people to try the language. And with that you implicate less users, less matured toolkit etc.
