GC, though, an a much, much smaller community.

For most applications a GC is fine. In addition, Nim's GC can handle soft real-time programs like games pretty well.

googling "GC language" predictably comes up with mostly links to garbage collection. Do you have a link to this language?

There's the Nim website[0] as well as the document describing the (soft) real-time GC that Nim comes with[1].

oops, I was confused - thought the comment was talking about a language named GC, rather than the fact that Nim has GC.
