So like newspeak but not based on English?

its more directly inspired by "pidgin" languages that evolve naturally when people do business without an initial common language. it's also a little bit like simple english / thing explainer, but not based on english (mostly).

I had to look at the date because it could have been from 10 years ago or yesterday. I had a hunch it was from 10 years ago and my hunch was wrong.

Are you more or less disappointed that it's not ten years old? I am less surprised but more disappointed that it's recent.

I didn't know about Toki pona, but if the purpose is to be minimalist, why there is redundancy with two character with the same pronunciation ?
Ua = W

W is a consonant, Voiced labial–velar approximant. U (Close back rounded) and A (Open front unrounded) are vowels. Combining those two vowels does not inherently produce any consonant.
