I worked with Ruby for about 10 years before diving into Erlang. I liked a lot about the Erlang ecosystem, but the syntax was a bit challenging. About a year later, I found Elixir. It provided all the joys of Ruby for me combined with all the things I loved about Erlang. This is completely subjective, obviously, but I've worked with a lot of languages over the past 30 years and Elixir has been by far my favorite. I hope to finish out my career doing Elixir.
