Not to advocate for one language over another, but sergio, you're right, Nim is ridiculously underrated and a much easier to use than rust. There's just a lot less mental overhead in almost anything and iteration is going to be much faster because lifetimes do get in the way.

Unfortunately this is one of those things where hype has kind of won out and I think a lot of people are dismissing an option like Nim simply because we're not talking about it on places like HN. Though, to be fair to Rust, the community is doing a lot of bleeding edge stuff that Nim's community just isn't big enough to.
