red
Red is a next-generation programming language strongly inspired by Rebol, but with a broader field of usage thanks to its native-code compiler, from system programming to high-level scripting and cross-platform reactive GUI, while providing modern support for concurrency, all in a zero-install, zero-config, single ~1MB file!

Red seems to have similar challenges. They have their code on GitHub, but the Releases are confusing. They have 3 releases posted. The latest one is 5 years old. But the project is active. You can download from their site, but the version number isn’t obvious.
From poking at the project, it looks interesting but not ready to really try out yet.

You are both right it seems. GP seems to have omitted withour GC. Number one on your list could be Dlang no? Not affiliated.

BUT! There's an open source version of Rebol3 with GUI, from Atronix. I still don't know how the hell it works, like, what does it pull for dependencies.

Thanks!
I thought about another multiplatform, homoiconic, highly compact language: https://janet-lang.org/ (takes 803 kb on my machine).
It has no types though.
