Ive been working in Elixir since 2015. I love the ecosystem and think its the best choice for building a web app from a pure tech/stability/scalability/productivity perspective (I also have a decade+ experience in Ruby on rails, Nodejs, and Php laravel, plus Rust to a lesser extent).

I am however having trouble in the human side of it. Ive got a strong resume but I was laid off in Nov 2024 and Im having trouble even getting Elixir interviews (with 9+ years of production Elixir experience!). Hiring people with experience was also hard when I was the hiring manager. It is becoming less niche these days. I love it too much to leave for other ecosystems in the web sphere
