Many of these reasons are why I moved to F# and haven't looked back (much). I sometimes miss Higher Kinded Types, but F# still has generics and if I'm being honest it forces me to write even simpler code then I would have in Haskell. I generally prefer this outcome.
However F# never feels "leet" like Haskell does. It's like Haskell, but all business. I get a lot done in F# and really enjoy it, but I'll catch myself looking back wistfully, like Haskell why couldn't we make it work. Sigh, the one that got away I guess.
- xupybd 3y agoI'm glad to read this. I'm new to FP and enjoying F#. Because it's terse and down to business. I've often wondered if I'm missing out by not using Haskell. It seems, for my purposes, probably not.
