Interestingly enough, it is one of the only "talked about" languages I have almost no experience with. Even Roc I've watched a few YouTube videos on. I've only really seen Odin mentioned on X, not even a HN post.
I suppose there is also Jai in a similar space as well, although I'm not a devotee to Jonathan Blow and I don't share much of the excitement his followers seem to have.
I do feel Zig has the current trend moving in its favor, with projects like Ghostty and Bun gaining prominence. I think Odin would need something like that to really capture attention.
Odin has commercial applications, basically all the JangaFX apps... But yeah, it's missing a killer open source app. Positive is it has a decent amount of batteries included.

But there are some: https://hn.algolia.com/?q=Odin
I'm not a devotee to the creator of Odin. Odin may be fine, but I'm hesitant when it comes to contributing to it. Welp. Life goes on.
