Ask HN: What programming language should I learn next?

Recently I've been itching to learn a new language.

I work mostly in Python currently. I've also worked extensively with Javascript (browser/nodejs). I've worked with C# and Java and Dart. Dabbled in C and C++. Played with Lua.

What should I learn next? My goal is to expand my skillset and maybe find the holy grail of programming languages (probably not). I'm a generalist and a freelancer.

My shortlist:

- Go - Rust - Elixir - Swift - Kotlin

Or maybe something I haven't listed?
