I like Nim, although I don't think it's great for everything and I do think it fills a particular niche. For me, that is a systems-programming language akin to Go or Rust with a familiar syntax. Coming primarily from Python, sometimes I need a language that is a) safe b) fast c) easily capable of producing a cross-platform executable. Nim provides all of these with a Pythonic syntax and style, and that is really the main reason I like it. It lacks the sponsorship and audience of the other two, but is still a well maintained language with an active community and all the core functionality you would likely expect. That being said, a few years ago I was a strong proponent of Nim, while today it is clear that Rust and Go have captured the mindshare and continue to grow momentum. In fact it becomes hard to recommend Nim when I think of where these 3 languages will likely be in 5 years.
