When I say "serious" I mean something widely used and expected on the labor market, like C++ or Java. I don't really know the world of programming very well, so I may misjudge some languages for being not serious easily. Particularly with Zig, I heard it being called a "vibecoder language"
For one thing, ignore anything you read about vibe coding on social media. The subject is so polluted by rage and misinformation, I think it's hard to competently process any discussion of it without already knowing a lot about it. Social media threads about vibe coding are like a bunch of people who don't speak English trying to teach each other English when most of them hate English.
