Which languages are worth learning as a Rust programmer?

As someone who uses Rust for everything since a few months and really like it, I often thought about learn something else, just to try it out and maybe learn something from it, but I haven't found something that does things different to Rust in a good way or has some really unique features (Except for essential domain-specific languages like JS). I think Rust has set the bar very high for me.
Some examples include:

  • C / C++: memory unsafety, technical debt etc.
  • Kotlin: we already have most of the features and cross-platform (sort of) with way better performance
  • Haskell: Rust is already partially functional and it does not seem to be super alive
  • Java: OOP, technical debt, etc.

While I do know that some of these can depend from person to person, I hope you understood what I mean. Thanks in advance!
