crtystal and nim, probably not.

Zig... is surprisngly used a lot given how rough the state of the language is. It makes me think that if it ever reaches v1.0, it has a very good chance of being at least a "Kotlin", probably a "elixir"/"haskell", and a decent enough shot of "typescript".

I'm trying to understand this. The languages mentioned will never grow because others didn't give them a chance, so you won't give them a chance either. Sir, I think I've diagnosed an infinite loop here. I recently started learning Nim. I'm only at the beginning of my journey, and there are things I don't like, but overall, Nim is a very nice language :-) A significant portion of the mistakes one can make in C/C++ can be avoided by writing idiomatic Nim, which is most case is super easy to do :-) EDIT: you=>one :-)
