Particularly given you haven't used actors, what advantages does Pony give you over Haskell?
1 comments

Right now I found Pony more approachable than Haskell. Maybe because that I never fully grok monads (probably my fault not persevering enough), I always had problems composing monads.

Also the promise of Pony is a garbage collection that is concurrent with program execution and since I want to write low latency server code this feature sounds very appealing.
