idk if clojure has really faded though. some dialects have done well (jvm, js) and some haven’t gotten much use (go, clr), but it feels like a reasonable path. there’s a good chance you can tap into a decent chunk of the existing clj ecosystem too
I do not deny that some people still use LISP, Haskell or Clojure. However they will always be a niche. Pure functional languages are hard to learn and their code hard to maintain.
Functional languages end up having their features incorporated into more general purpose languages, like C#, Python, Java, Swift, Kotlin or Rust.
One more of those revolutionary functional languages that fade over the course of 5 years?
like Haskell or Lisp?
