As for Kitten, I didn't like the syntax. To me the interesting thing about Forth-like languages is the postfix/rpn syntax, which Kitten moves to far away from. I really liked how `if` in Factor was just a postfix word like any other, where the then- and else-clause was just quotation arguments.
I'm sure Kitten is a fine language, it just wasn't what I was looking for.
There are so many projects I started because I was interested in the problem set, got to a point where I was proud of the result, only to change my search terms just a little and find an established project by someone else.
And sometimes I read replies like this and I think it feels like someone just saying "repost: " and linking fifteen other HN threads.
