Facebook Messenger, if I remember correctly, was also originally authored in Erlang.

    Discord was written in Elixir! https://blog.discord.com/scaling-elixir-f9b8e1e7c29b https://blog.discord.com/scaling-elixir-f9b8e1e7c29b

      Does it mean it's technically also based on Erlang?

        It runs on the Erlang BEAM virtual machine. But it’s very much it’s own language, and looks and feels very different to Erlang. I would say the Elxir is based on Erlang about as much as Scala is based on Java.
