And knowing the magic keyword search `adix` to arrive at a prerelease library that you yourself wrote. That not's exactly an endorsement for discoverability. Unless I'm missing something, Nimble is essentially stateless. You have no sense of how many times or how recently a library has been downloaded. These are important proxies.

You've been around the community a lot longer than I have. Don't you find this strange? What top 10 language has as weak of a std lib as Nim? [Status all but says](https://status-im.github.io/nim-style-guide/libraries.std.ht...) don't use it.

Yeah, I don't think this is the community's strong suit. It strikes me that Araq is tired of explaining himself (but doesn't care to consolidate discussion into ADRs), so when a well-meaning, would be contributor like the parent-poster comes along they get shot down and we lose them.
