Hi! There are quite a few posts here about Forth and other concatenative / stack languages, an average of more than one a week; maybe worthy of a forth tag? Below are 12 posts from the past 2 months; I’ll concede that there was a burst last week on May Forth (haha), and that two of these were submitted by me, but I think it’s still a significant number. (For comparison, the current proposal for an Ada tag lists 16 posts over two years.)
BTW, searching lobste.rs for Forth is really annoying, since search is case-insensitive and “forth” is a common English word; less than 10% of the results were relevant. [Edit: I was sorting by Newest; turns out Relevance works better, but was not relevant(!) to my needs.] Same goes for Factor, and I didn’t even attempt Joy or Cat. This alone might be a justification for a tag!
