Since y’all love LUA so much, what’s it’s advantage over things like micropython?
Pain and suffering (aka an arrays base index is one)
You forgot computercraft players
Don’t forget the Silverbullet users.
Balatro, gmod, srb2 modding.
World of Warcraft plugins and Awesome WM configs. There are some decent 2d game engines that use Lua too, like Love2d!
Tarantool db users
Luanti (formerly Minetest) and LÖVE. Oh, and TIC-80
Does anyone genuinely like the language on its own merits? Lua is an excellent alternative to other interpreted langs like Python or JS.
Yes. Although it’s actually a very good alternative, it suffers from a lack of community. Its use can be increased with a global community and localized communities.
Some features of the MediaWiki engine run on Lua, too!
