What about D? <https://dlang.org>

Apart from the fact that all the compilers are either Windows-oriented
or horribly out-of-date, and the actual implementation is a nightmare,
and it only allows inline assembly in x86, the core language seemed like
a good idea.

Seriously, if only the language didn't come with so much baggage, it
would probably be awesome.
