Good stuff. I say that as someone that is not biased.

Really? Wow, this is like Zig and I love Zig!

Flutter

That's a nice list!

People here need time to notice XD

Well, I do!?!! It's even faster than zoomer langs like Odin. You should try it.

Zoomer is a good word btw. I love zoomers.

And I am here, enjoying both. Life is good.

> String Interpolation (F-strings)

This is so nice. It's crazy how other low-level langs don't have it. I know Dlang and Rust have it. Maybe Swift too? The way Dlang does it is nice because you can do a lot of stuff with them at compile time.

Vlang mentioned, let's goo! I like low-level languages that provide easy access to a GC. It's a nice way to make some parts of the code more high-level and it kinda avoids the need for a scripting language sometimes.

I wrote a simple benchmark comparing my custom dynamic array implementation in Dlang with dynamic arrays in other languages. The test appends and then removes 100,000,000 integers on a Ryzen 3 2200G with 16 GB RAM. This is just a rough cross-language benchmark and not something serious:

Appending and removing 100000000 items... Testing: ./app_d real 0.16 user 0.03 sys 0.12 Testing: ./app_zig real 0.18 user 0.05 sys 0.13 Testing: ./app_odin real 0.27 user 0.10 sys 0.16
