We have no Nim usage in the company. One of our engineers nominated it as something they find personally interesting, and we wanted to give at least a little bit to every project that our employees nominated.
That's absolutely fair and we appreciate the donation a lot.
One additional thing that would have been fairly cheap: call out the smaller open source projects you donated to. To some the exposure can mean a lot in a blog post like this :)
We're thinking through how to follow up on this post with additional signal-boosting throughout the year, point taken about exposure value to small projects. We'll keep that in mind!
Then the value received for Sentry most likely also pale in comparison.
I've never heard of Nim before this comment. It looks pretty cool, especially the self-contained aspect. Do you know of any big company using Nim in production?
