Nim v2.0 Released
> You can also not really have productive and well-fitting errors-as-values in a language that emphasizes UFCS
Eh, https://github.com/arnetheduck/nim-results and associated syntax from https://github.com/codex-storage/questionable would beg to disagree. Nim's stdlib does not have productive and well-fitting errors because it suffers from inertia and started far before the robust wonders of recoverable error handling via errors-as-types entered the mainstream with Rust (IMO: and refined with Swift). Option/Result types are fantastic and I do so wish the standard library used them: but it's nothing a (very large) wrapper couldn't provide, I suppose.
I do strongly think that other languages are greatly missing out on UFCS and I miss it dearly whenever I go to write Python or anything else. I'm not quite sure how you think UFCS would make it impossible to have good error handling? Rust also has (limited, unfortunately) UFCS and syntax around error handling does not suffer because of it. If by errors-as-values you mean Go-style error handling, I quite despise it - I think any benefits of the approach are far offset by the verbosity, quite similarly to Java's checked exceptions.

Stop Building on Corporate-Controlled Languages
If exceptions aren’t your cup of tea, look into using stew/results and questionable instead:

Re: std/db_sqlite, your probably better off using sqlite3_abi:

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.
