Having used Forth professionally for about ten years, the language has always held a special place in my heart. I have had the experience (fun!) of implementing Forth from nothing in a couple of processors (6502 and 68K).
While I do think the language is useful in certain domains, the main problem everyone has with it will be finding qualified programmers. I’ve had to convert codebases to C for this reason and, back in the day, made a fair bit of money doing this as a gun for hire.
