I like Nim but its ffi, while really good, is not effortless. You have to wrap every function you call, which in large C libraries can be an incredible pain in the neck. There are tools to help you out, like c2nim, but in my experience the output it produces requires fixing to get it working, and of course when the upstream library changes or adds to its API those sorts of things have to be taken into account as well.
