Ruby vs SELF

What are the main differences between Ruby and SELF in day-to-day work
with creating "software"? I.e. I have read the description of SELF, but
I felt that I wouldnt need SELF if I just learn it because I want to see
what it offers (since I doubt that SELF is better than Ruby and I use
Ruby happily since quite many years already).

Quite curious about it though.

Conceptionally Self is very interesting but when I checked last Self
just was not an option on Linux. Did that change?

Just found while musing about Self:

So it seems to run on linux now (again) as well.

I somehow doubt that anybody is using Self as a day-to-day work language.
