What about Zig?
Oh boy, Zig is just uglier C++ with memory safety, and it still has those awful header files...
IIRC it's garbage collected, so really it's just a version of Java.
It does not use a GC
Apparently, I do not RC. I might have been thinking of Nim. A quick search indicates it's not memory-safe, though. It has a few helpful features to keep errors under control, but that's it.
I was planning to check it out, but don't have any experience yet. I thought it is more of a replacement than drop-in replacement, I may have been wrong
