Regarding Zig, note that the author writes "starting a new project in a memory unsafe language in 2023 is foolish as demonstrated by the endless flow of vulnerabilities."
No, let's actually have a standard with some thoughtful design instead of just bunging a bunch of ancient POSIXisms along into another platform. Also, as far as I can tell, it's being pushed exclusively by Wasmer which looks to be a bit shady as a company.
Zig is also a good option for that, but the language is still in development.
