Yeah, I can't seem to resist responding to a mention of Rust's "SJW cancer" with a pent-up rant about politics in free software ecosystems... (The GitHub situation has been particularly traumatic...)
I agree about Nim's technical merits. There's something about the "just works" qualification that, despite being very vague, definitely rings true. I've been especially impressed with how easily Nim has been ported to other platforms - with zero dependencies.
