Agree with the point, but Vala is pretty old (relatively speaking). It's been around for a while and the whole idea is to have a GTK/GObject-focused C-family language. Last I looked it was a C transpiler and may still be.
And if you've ever used GNOME, you've probably used some Vala applications!
I like to use Cheese, the nice little webcam app, to test a webcam when I first set it up or just take a selfie, even when I'm not on GNOME. That's a Vala application :)
