I found the Haskell operators to be particularly unenjoyable, and that's coming from someone who started to program in Perl. I don't see any logical purpose in such a large deviation from most languages even in basic things like comment operators. It felt like I was writing code in a different (spoken) language. In short, Haskell's modernity didn't offer enough for me to consider it over Clojure.
