I personally prefer the RedMonk rankings [1] over TIOBE, since TIOBE's entirely about Google hits, which lags as an activity indicator by a few years, because sites for languages that have stopped being used stay around for years. Also, Google hits counts are really noisy, especially for languages that have names that are also words, like Go and Elixir. RedMonk uses recent GitHub and Stack Overflow activity as a proxy for popularity.

In this case though, Elixir is still way lower, at somewhere around 30th compared to Go's 14th.
