    Wouldn’t have been difficult to sleuth using my profile here, but Nim-lang. Specifically because it’s basically an all-in-one, being easy and fast+capable+flexible. Maybe not enough to go by (and I didn’t finish/release it), but some code that I actually wrote (+what it’s loading)

    For further context on the statement by the creator, it was complaining about the “grammar” of singular they. Aside from that being an obvious culture-war BS dogwhistle, the person who quit knew them closely so I don’t think it was an overreaction.

      Singular they has been used for something like 7 centuries.

        Yes, that’s why I said it was at-least stupid. It isn’t even an uncommon thing in modern usage. We can accept it without it being a political thing, and it matters even less in an online community.

      Oh, damn. Why do assholes gotta ruin everything?

      I’ve seen Nim before. It looks interesting, and I like the promise of a no-nonsense, performant language. I’m comfortable over here in dotnet land though. 😄
