I am looking for memory-safe languages that can be used for systems/graphics programming. I love Rust, but it often feels like too massive a language with too much stuff going on. Is there a language like C, which is simpler (obviously without all the UB and other problems)?
This is an especially hard ask, given how useful the FP-like features of Rust are, and I find it almost impossible to live without them. Basically, I am looking for a middle ground between C/Zig and Rust.
One such language I have found is Austral[0]. What other such languages are there?
