High GDP countries in Europe have a high tax per GDP because of the political culture, so this could be just an artefact.

> Not calling you out or anything, but could you give a reference on that? I'm curious about what they're doing with a "DRM" in the compiler.

Check tester89 link - it’s the description about the state of Elm right now. Author’s experience matches my personal one.

To give a bit context, Elm main team has been defensive against forks. They are preventing development of features they don’t think worth to them. It’s not possible to publish packages with low-level access without Elm main team approval. The compiler even has built-in DRM about that. My point is more compilers is exactly what Elm needs to flourish. C has several compilers. Python has even”jython”. That doesn’t make a language community weaker.

Sad that they have to put a massive "Non-goals" full of emojis so the main Elm team does't feel threated. A languange doesn't lose anything with an extra compiler - a competing compiler is actually what Elm needs right now.
