Nim v2.0 Released
That looks interesting. Unfortunately it looks like it hasn't been updated in a while? Is that because it's complete or a lack of interest?
For example, the approach mentioned at the bottom of the README of integrating via nlvm (https://github.com/arnetheduck/nlvm) sounded great but appears to be unpursued.

Nim Version 1.6 Released
Being able to compile to C, C++, ObjC, and JavaScript natively (and LLVM using https://github.com/arnetheduck/nlvm ), along with an excellent FFI (including to and from Python) means you don't need to rewrite dependencies as you can use them directly. Nim is great at glue code - arguably better than Python.
Along with general language characteristics such as being high level and productive like Python, but with intricate "bare metal" control when you want it, really does make it suitable for writing almost everything.

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.
