> The really ugly bit is the macro system: Nim macros are awful.

If I had a penny for every time I see you say that on HN... :)

In any case, I disagree with you. Nim macros are really easy to work with, the AST construction is a bit verbose but that can be easily remedied by writing functions which make the construction easier.

I do say it a lot. But it is true.

That can only really go so far...

You keep repeating that without describing how in comparison to other languages.

Actually, I've gone into quite a bit of depth about how it fares in comparison to other languages. :-)

You can go look up the comments, if you like. I can't do another writeup on it at the moment, sorry to say.
