I really wanted to love nim. I wrote a bunch of tools in it, had fun, and then ultimately rewrote them all in rust. The library situation in nim is just unfortunate, and I say that as someone who uses elixir. That, and the cross compiling took far more effort than getting the same code finished on rust, which was little more than "use cross"

I keep hoping nim will get better, because it's a beautiful language that produces absolutely tiny, efficient binaries
