The way I use it is really rather boring.

I liked Ruby on Rails, but I didn't like the magic, nor did I like the runtime errors.

That's basically how I use Haskell/Yesod. A better Ruby/Rails.

You certainly can do very interesting things with Haskell, but nothing compels you to. Writing boring software in a boring way with Haskell is totally fine, and works well for my businesses.

I'll clarify though that I'm not suggesting I do OOP in Haskell, if anyone reads that into what I wrote.
