I wonder what causes the strong European bias in the results, in general in those surveys I'm used to seeing USA #1.

Beyond that it actually looks pretty good for the language, it seems popular among experienced developers and they seem pretty happy with it and consider using it for serious work (although obviously the fact that they even bothered to reply to the survey probably biases that).

Of the top ten contributors on github, nine of them are Europeans. I think all nim meet-up/conferences have been in Europe.

Makes me wonder if the language would have more mainstream traction if it was more of a US project.

There are various papers on the topic of developer locations.

Among community-driven projects USA is very far from #1.

Instead it's #1 on corporate stuff.
