No types in Elixir, I think a better comparison is actually Gleam, it is Rust-like in type system but is built on and interoperable with Erlang/OTP.

- neonsunset 2y agoBoth are exceedingly slow and memory-hungry. The average user of Rust might get shocked and never touch these again. Now F# on the other hand…
- satvikpendem 2y agoYeah I mean it depends if you want the benefits of OTP or not. To be honest, while it was nice as an all in one solution 50 years ago, these days there are all sorts of solutions for deployment so I wouldn't want to choose a programming language just because of its additional features in the form of OTP, especially if it entails dynamic typing or slower speed.
