Nobody is really writing the low level tools in any other language. Rust is a bloated nightmare too, so is python, and haskell. There is no tentative solution except for a mass nuclear war to send us back to the stone age. You can run very minimalist stacks but then it's like computing in the 80s, 90s and people just are interested in that.

In fact us PC/Laptop users are a dying breed, let alone FOSS bros, most people are mobile only these days. Android and iPhone rule the world.
