I started learning Nim a few years ago (never use it professionally, though).

Overall, it feels like a nice combination of Pascal and Python. At least, reading Nim code is usually easier than Rust.

On the other side, I'm still interesting in learning Rust. There are some open source OS kernel projects written in it.

I wrote a few programs in Nim to get a feel for the language, coming from a background in mostly Python I found it pretty easy to pick on the basic language structure.
