This is another categorical statement. I love how the languages you mention do concurrency, but I don't think that if you use threads, one should only be doing it in Elixir/Erlang (or go).

I find that nearly as disagreeable as the original posting.

I'm categorical only in terms of my personal preferences. Threading model is just hard, so in general, I'd suggest looking for alternatives. But that's not a universal advice as there are cases where it does not apply or the developers are up to the task of handling multiple threads.
