Hi! I'm new here. I just recently discovered Nim.

Answering the question: in most professional work I can't choose the language I 
want to work with, so as Nim isn't very popular it doesn't get used. 
Enterprises often trust languages that are widely used.

But I'm now using Nim for personal projects and internal tools (when the client 
doesn't have a clue of what language I'm using). It's great for command line 
tools and REST APIs.

IMHO, Nim needs a huge and well organized _official_ libraries repository. This 
will make people use it more. This is what made Perl popular even though the 
language is seen as less readable.

I think Nim fits the niche of _practical_ languages. It just needs more 
libraries and tooling.

Nim is both readable and practical. Keep up the good work.

I will write some libraries in my free time.
