Crystal 1.9.1 Is Released
Agreed! There's a couple of fairly large projects in Nim: https://nimbus.team/ (https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2) or https://github.com/zedeus/nitter
Though there's still friction points I've been happy seeing the ecosystem grow lately. The compiler has seen a lot of bug fixes lately too which helps.

[1 Year Review] Status still hasn't released anything or gained any real market share in private messaging
In the same year their beacon chain client followed Bellatrix (Merge) and Capella upgrades without a hitch, which is in many ways more impressive than a messenger.

Daily Goerli: Was getting a lot of missed attestations with nimbus and after some back and forth with tersec, we confirmed that timeouts communicating with web3signer were the culprit. A fix should be merged soon.

Nim Version 1.6 Released
Well no language is perfect, but Nim can be used in almost every domain because of it's compilation targets(C, C++, JS) and it's fast compile times(who needs interpretation when compile times are that fast!):
* Shell scripting, I still assume most people will just use Bash tho: https://github.com/Vindaar/shell
* Frontend: https://github.com/karaxnim/karax or you could bind to an existing JS library.
* Backend: For something Flask-like: https://github.com/dom96/jester or something with more defaults https://github.com/planety/prologue
* Scientific computing: the wonderful SciNim https://github.com/SciNim
* Blockchain: Status has some of the biggest Nim codebases currently in production https://github.com/status-im?q=&type=&language=nim&sort=
* Gamedev: Also used in production: https://github.com/pragmagic/godot-nim and due to easy C and C++ interop, you get access to a lot of gamedev libraries!
* Embedded: this is a domain I know very little about but for example https://github.com/elcritch/nesper or https://github.com/PMunch/badger for fun Nim+embedded stuff!
Most of the disadvantages come from tooling and lack of $$$ support.

One Nim web framework to rule over all styles
Prologue is a great web framework in the Nim world. However, Prologue framework tries to avoid using macros. It is intended to reduce magic and reduce surprise. Macros could save you from redundant codebases. At the mean time, it could bring surprise. This article talks about how to extend the routing style outside Prologue without invading inside the web framework.
