alt Hacker NewsTo be fair, Odin _had_ a Wikipedia page and it has been removed because of... people with whatever interests. But I'm still agreeing with your general point. I use C/C++ because it seems to be the least friction option to me overall, and I don't want to deal with language but simply focus on my actual compute problem. (Given that, I spend an unreasonable amount of time in silly fights about language).
I've read about some drama with Odin's Wikipedia page - but I don't think that contradicts my point. If your language community can't even defend a Wikipedia page, you're an obscure language that people can't be expected to choose that easily. That doesn't automatically mean it's a bad language, but it does make it weird to recommend it in the same breath as Rust. It's like saying "choose a language like APL or C or Java" - one of these is not like the others.
