My 2 cents about how Clojure appears in StackOverflow surveys: https://piero.github.io/stories/2022/06/23/the-clojure-paradox.html https://piero.github.io/stories/2022/06/23/the-clojure-parad...
Key points:
- Most respondents are junior-mid developers.
- Clojure was written by an experienced developer (Rich Hickey) and is adopted mostly by experienced developers.
- Clojure is not beginner-friendly, however it is extremely pragmatical.
- The appreciation of pragmatism over perfectionism is an acquired taste, which takes time and experience to develop.
- It is remarkable how the love for Clojure came out despite its user base being so under-represented.
