Q1: Overall, are you happy with your choice of using Nim?
Q2: What would you do different? (and what unexpected positives did you find)?

A couple of things I think need improvements are: (1) better IDE support (especially for JetBrains IDEs), and (2) better support for true sum types and pattern matching[0]. As for unexpected positives, I found that the standard library covers a lot of functionality that I rarely (or ever) need a 3rd party package. Maybe that's because I'm not doing anything exotic.
