Cool I guess. I just notice that say, unlike PHP, I don't know if there's a single thing in the scala 3.0 release I care about (as somebody who's preferred language as scala) [Edit: Except for fixing implicits, big win]. A lot of times it feels like it's a language with so much potential which then misses some basic real-world use-cases for the 99% who couldn't care less about covariant blah blah, and just want a clear, fast, reliable, reusable programming language as a means to an ends of delighting millions of users.
Maybe I'll write a blog-post about it, but as I practice leet-codes in scala, I miss relatively basic things like c-style for loop (so I can use a for loop on linked lists rather than a while), or things like a list that can have more than Int.MaxValue numbers.
