I've really been enjoying Hare. As a primary Go/Rust developer its syntax and limitations feel like what I've been looking for and it's youth predicates plenty of opportunity to work on new project. When I was working on a ANSI Colors lib [0] last night I spent a lot of time in the community IRC. Your post is basically what everyone's feeling. This is a language designed for people who like it's style. It doesn't need to have this or that feature. And if the community changes their mind, what better candidate than an open source tight-knit young language?
