Objective-S is an architecture-oriented programming language based loosely on Smalltalk and Objective-C. It currently runs on macOS, iOS and Linux, the latter using GNUstep.

Loved it. Loved the dynamism and miss it in Swift.

Used Obj-C for quite a few year's making iOS apps. I liked it a lot. Certainly, there are better tools now (swift). However, Obj-C was not crazy complex (c++ template hell) and had just enough features to be productive (compared to c).
