Had Nim been developed by or had funding from a large company (Google, Mozilla) I'm sure that chart would be much different. Instead, Nim is built by a group of volunteers contributing to a language they love. I am not a contributor, but I also quickly fell in love with the language. I felt incredibly productive and being able to build tiny binaries that were cross platform was awesome compared to my old Golang binaries which tend to be heavy (bundling everything into a single binary). Also coming from a web background with little system/application programming knowledge I was able to pick it up really quick. It really is a "better python" in my opinion. The language is incredibly easy to read and write, has really good JSON support (which is a big plus for me) and is incredibly fast. To add more reasons to try, Visual Studio Code has a really good plugin for the language.
