Some more would be statistical (R, Matlab, SPSS), gaming outside the web (C, C++, Java), scientific computing (Python, Fortran, Julia), supercomputing simulations (Fortran, C++, C), embedded devices (C, C++, Rust), server farms (C++, Go, Java), financial (Java, Cobol, J/K), to name three PLs in each category that come to mind.
There is a big world of computing outside of apps and websites.
