Yup, corporate buy in is a big deal. Years ago I tried using Nim for a network daemon, but the sheer lack of even the most basic http libraries prevented me from doing it and I went with go.

The library situation is a bit better now. But without a big company contributing in terms of libraries, the language usage will just be very low.

Not in that list, but nim-chronos also provides a solid http server/client:
