Interesting, well too bad. Personally I find Nim more useful and productive than ever with LLMs.
replyNitter uses Jester which seems dead for sure, but doing static binaries is easy. Personally I just forked Mummy to continue as MummyNG since I prefer threaded servers so things like JSON parsing doesn’t cause latency issues.
Though that being written over a year ago it’s either not a high priority or harder than it seems. I’ll be curious to see which. LLMs make it easier than ever for others to contribute or to fix up deps.
Honestly seems like a good move. It also isn't likely to be very difficult with the help of LLMs.
replyCurious as an outsider: what sorts of problems are there in the Nim world, and why would things improve by switching to Go?
replyBasically lack of polish. Nim's compiler just keeps evolving around unfinished and unpolished ideas never reaching a momentum.
replyIt's a research project of its BDFL and he is alienating the most senior developers and contributors to Nim's ecosystems (ie Zedeus).
