I tried it, and it brings little. It got new syntax, but syntax alone is not important. I can build with erlang, so why would i pick elixir? I used erlang for almost 20 years, and never saw the idea of elixir.

Gleam on the other hand has a actual type system. It still young but i can see what it offers.

So syntax for me is totally pointless and just noise.
