I don’t see your point. A large base of Nim users are looking for a pragmatic alternative to the C/C++ family without the aggressive anti-modernism of Go. Nim is certainly not the only player in this realm, but far as I know there isn’t a “Nim Drama” Twitter or tumblr. The drama queen stereotype of Ruby and Rails is very well earned on a repeated basis. All the communities have had their dramas but Ruby and Rust to a lesser extent seem to attract it a lot more as a pattern.

You guys make this too easy. Unless it was sarcasm, so whoosh me, and chapeau!

Well, you sure make a good case for Rubyists being incredibly pretentious.

Hardly anyone uses Nim. It's extremely niche, even compared to something like Rust. That's why there's no Nim infighting.

Before you can have dozens of people fighting about a thing, you need more than a dozen people to care about that thing.

Oh believe me. There definitely is infighting. The people doing the infighting just haven’t started trying to involve the wider audience (yet?) :)
