> pool of Elixir programmers is almost non-existent

Nonsense. There's more Elixir programmers (or at least those who want to program Elixir professionally) than there are Elixir jobs.

More Elixir programmers than Elixir jobs is not an incentive to learn and/or use a language.

[cpursley]

No, but Elixir/Erlang OTP is worth learning in and of itself.

I mean, sure, but i already have a long list of that, probably longer than I can learn in a lifetime.

Things get prioritised when they help pay the bills
