If we care for promoting Forth, we should try to make it easier to
use it. E.g. my flash programmer for one of Elektuurs single board
computer (8051 based) can be down loaded and run. Compare this to
having to load the programmer on a configured gForth system on
Windows. Oops. First have to install gForth first. This will
shrink the number of users by an order of magnitude.

If there are no useful programs, the language will be conceived
as not useful.
