Learning Programming with Nim
I've got a systems level project I want to play around with, however GC is not a deal breaker for me. The languages I've been considering are Rust, Nim, Crystal, and Zig. I've started writing it in Rust but the syntax is unnecessarily noisy for my taste and there are too many times I have to do similar things in a slightly different syntactic way due to some inherent idiosyncrasies, which makes the code much harder to read. In addition, it seems like there are often too many ways to do the same thing, which increases the surface area of the language.I like Nim syntax the best, and Crystal and Zim are tied for second. I don't mind a small library / ecosystem. The main things I'm interested in are:- I want to write once and run on Windows / Linux / Mac. (I'm not writing a GUI.)
 - Concurrency and async capabilities
 - Safety guarantees (both types and threads)
 - SpeedI'd be interested in people's recommendations, or links to comparisons between these languages.
