There was one I forgot to mention, which claims to use a similar

The object semantics are indeed similar. However, in Squeak you're
interacting with live objects directly, rather than having them
recreated from dead code all the time. That's a huge difference once
you make the mind shift.
And, btw, it's "Smalltalk" with a lowercase t.
