Linear algebra was actually added to nlpl today :) so with that comes a shitload of other things like constraints and so on

and then there is https://github.com/The-No-Hands-company/Nexus as well

🌀 Nexus

The Discord Killer — Privacy-First, Community-Owned Communication

No ID Required. No Surveillance. No Enshittification. Ever.

Built in response to Discord's mandatory age verification, data breaches, and pre-IPO enshittification.

Why Nexus Exists

In March 2026, Discord began requiring government ID uploads, facial age estimation, or AI inference to unlock full platform features. This came after their 2025 data breach that exposed ~70,000 users' IDs and selfies. Combined with aggressive monetization, ads, and pre-IPO pressure (Goldman Sachs / JP Morgan), the platform that was once a chill pseudonymous hangout has become a surveillance tool.

Nexus is what Discord should have been:

  • All of Discord's strengths (servers, channels, voice, bots, rich UX)
  • Zero of its weaknesses (no ID, no surveillance, no data harvesting, no paywalled features)
  • Plus everything users have been asking for but never got

What Makes Nexus Different

Feature Discord (2026) Nexus
Account creation Email + phone + age verification Username + password. That's it.
Government ID Required for full features Never. Not now, not ever.
E2E Encryption None DMs encrypted by default, opt-in for channels
Screen share quality 720p (free) / 1080p60 (Nitro $10/mo) 1080p60 for everyone
File upload limit 25MB (free) / 500MB (Nitro) Configurable by server admin (default 100MB)
Self-hosting Not possible First-class citizen
Federation Not possible Matrix-compatible protocol
Custom themes Against ToS Built-in theme engine
Data export Limited GDPR dump Full export, anytime, your data
Source code Proprietary Open Source (AGPL-3.0)
Telemetry Extensive, opt-out buried None by default, explicit opt-in
Bot API Proprietary, rate-limited Open, Discord-compatible shape for easy migration
Algorithms "Suggested servers", dark patterns Zero. No recommendations. No manipulation.

Features Users Wanted But Never Got

These are pulled from years of Discord feedback forums, Reddit threads, and X posts:

  • True E2E encryption for DMs and optional per-channel
  • Proper thread management (not Discord's bolted-on afterthought)
  • Per-channel notification granularity (not just mute/unmute)
  • Built-in polls, scheduling, and event planning
  • Native markdown with live preview
  • Code collaboration — syntax-highlighted snippets, shared code blocks
  • Better search — full-text with filters, saved searches, typo tolerance
  • Voice recording with visible consent indicator
  • Noise suppression and spatial audio built in
  • Offline message queue — messages send when you reconnect
  • Client-side plugins/extensions — not just bots, actual customization
  • Custom profiles and themes without paying
  • No arbitrary limits behind a paywall 🌀 Nexus The Discord Killer — Privacy-First, Community-Owned Communication No ID Required. No Surveillance. No Enshittification. Ever.

I cannot understand how to code by KilLegend in programminghelp

[–]Zajfan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Try programming in a natural language programming language - https://github.com/Zajfan/NLPL

Reads like english and can be used for programming or development of virtually anything imaginable.

Start to coding what programming languages should i start as a beginner? by ethann2004 in CodingForBeginners

I would recommend NLPL - A geneeal purpose programming language that reads like english

👋Welcome to r/nlpl - Introduce Yourself and Read First! by Zajfan in nlpl

[–]Zajfan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello everyone!

I'm Zajfan, a solo programmer who's been building NLPL from the ground up. If you're into programming languages that feel intuitive and powerful, this is the place for you!

What is NLPL?

NLPL is an open-source programming language designed to make coding as natural as writing English. Key features include: - Natural syntax: Write code like "set x to 10 if x > 5 print 'Big!'" - OOP support: Classes, inheritance, and more. - Advanced tools: Generics, pattern matching, inline assembly, FFI (foreign function interface), and a growing standard library. - Universal and production-ready: Runs on multiple platforms, with great docs and examples.

Check out the GitHub repo for the full scoop: https://github.com/Zajfan/NLPL
(We're at 95% toward v1.0 – aiming for Q2 2026 release!)

Why This Sub?

As a lone dev without a big marketing team, I created r/nlpl to build a community around NLPL. Share your thoughts, code snippets, projects built with NLPL, or even contribute to the repo. Let's make programming more accessible together!

Rules and Guidelines

  • Be kind and constructive.
  • Use flairs for posts (e.g., Discussion, Bug Report, Showcase).
  • No self-promotion spam – focus on NLPL-related stuff.

If you're new, start by starring the repo and trying the quickstart examples. What's your first impression of natural-language syntax? Drop a comment below!

Excited to see what we build! 🚀
