If it can run nginx and node.js on a VPS it could be a nice alternative to Linux.

The current Debian/Hurd port of nginx is outdated, but runs fine.

There's been a few problems with nodejs, as libfuse compatibility isn't the latest yet. Some libraries work fine. Some explode. So you'll have to compile it yourself.

Python and Go, however, should run out of the box just fine.
