Raku is amazing. It is great for writing System/Ops scripts with easy built in concurrency! Its only fault is, it has too much stuff in it.

- 7thaccount 1y agoNot just too much stuff IMO. I kind of like all the features. The main problem in my eyes is not enough volunteers (although they are doing a superhuman effort) to get it into the production level it needs to get more widespread adoption. The other problem is that Python already has a huge amount of libraries and is considered to be "good enough" feature wise, so it's hard to attract interest. I do enjoy reading Raku code and think it is super neat as this do it all post-modern language. Inertia is hard to overcome though.
