I'm a little surprised that the stock response seems to be that erlang is "arcane" and would have a higher cost to maintain. I don't use it myself but there definitely are erlang programmers, and I sometimes wish I had chosen a less mainstream tech stack than typescript for my own company as it makes filtering for engineers a bit easier. Erlang is surely quite stable given that it was initially designed for telecoms, and projects like rabbitmq are based upon it?
