It's a wide question, and I don't have a good answer. One obvious difference is the syntax. I prefer Python's syntax over Nim's, but at the same time I find Python slow sometimes and hard to use in embedded systems. I'm aiming to create something similar to Nim's toolchain to address that.

P.S. Since you’re using C++ shared pointers, you might want a cycle detection. But like Nim’s new ARC you can let the programmer beware and ensure their programs don’t produce cycles. It seems handy to allow pure RC’ing for embedded devices.

I'll keep this in mind.
