I liked C3 a lot because it was the first C successor I looked at which I could understand easily and was relatively more C-like than the others. I have used that property to port various C libraries to C3 without much issue.

In Zig I had a really hard time getting productive. I found it really hard, but I really wanted to like it, I just couldn't.

Hare was focused on just Linux and I wanted cross platform and ideally a C-like language.

Odin looks approachable but I didn't really want a language which is quite different to C as it makes porting code from C more challenging.
