It’s popular enough; Simply making something massively popular rarely makes it better. I think functional programming in general still has a lot to teach most programmers that are writing code in the most popular languages today. That doesn’t mean I think they should be using different languages primarily. It means I think they should make their own environments better by learning what others have figured out before them. Erlang has seen plenty of success IMO.
