I can't think of a single grievance fork of an already-unpopular esoteric language that went on to become a serious industry-shifting project.

What's the elevator pitch, is it just social grievance with the Nim developers? Because that's all I get from the readme.

unpopular != not popular

esoteric != novel

Nim is not well known or used a lot in production, but it is neither unpopular nor esoteric.

It's neither in the PYPL nor TIOBE top-20, or even top-50, for popularity.

so what?

> already-unpopular esoteric language
