Nim is not really 'pythonic'. It does have some superficial similarity with Python (being whitespace sensitive) but it begins to diverge pretty soon. This is not really a criticism of Nim. I quite like many of the choices in Nim.

Seq claims that vast majority of python programs would work as is. I have not validated that claim, but Nim can absolutely not make that claim. Any python library would require substantial porting effort to be translated to nim.

Nim is pretty pythonic in terms of expressiveness.

Of course Nim is statically typed, but a lot of Python code that does not use dynamic typing heavily can be ported to Python surprisingly easily.
