I kind of love writing in Pony. It's so different from a lot of languages and hits somewhere as this weird combination of Smalltalk and Rust. The idea of "concurrent by default" is really really compelling as many popular languages try to make parallelism/concurrency accessible but it's never easy. With Pony you literally can't write deadlocks or data races, and you can't be unsafe with memory.

@previous (C)
I remember looking at Pony in the past. Being a fan of Rust I was interested in Pony as well because it shares similar ideals.
In the end I did not look at Pony any further because there are too many things I’d like to do.
But anyways, it’s cool that the project exists and that people use it :)
What sorts of programs did you use it for?

I'm interested in distributed devices and have some makeshift smart home stuff created. Quite a few "glue" layers on-device are in Pony. Coordinating messages between radios and whatnot.

I probably wouldn't make a "real" project with it just yet, certainly not one when I'm doing $employer work
