Erlang and Elixir aren't as popular as other modern languages because they don't have a marketing giant (google->golang, mozilla->rust) behind them, but you should check them, they're insane. https://github.com/stevana/armstrong-distributed-systems/blob/main/docs/erlang-is-not-about.md https://i.imgur.com/9g6CMqK.png

I think we are missing here DX. To be honest I think lots of languages get a lot of traction because they have good DX. Python being one of them. Perl, Haskell Ada, etc. are great but their DX is not on par and that's why I think they don't get the attention that other languages do.

Elixir has the best DX of any language I’ve used. Have you used it? Ruby also has far superior dx than python and is way less popular. I think DX should matter more but doesn’t.
