Zig is apparently not much more complicated than C. It's got the same focus on low-level programming and manual memory management as C does. Doesn't support operator overloading though, and probably never will. :(
I didn't mention Zig because as far as I know there's no Safe Zig subset, nor are there plans to develop one. Zig itself is an unsafe language. [0][1]
That's the nice thing about Safe Rust, it's a proper safe language akin to Java and JavaScript, while retaining high performance, plain old ahead-of-time compilation, and no garbage collector. Zig isn't playing the same game.
