I see plenty of new startups in Elixir and haven't had any real issue finding Elixir client work since I switched to it. Elixir is not nearly as ubiquitous as Ruby was and I don't think it will be. I don't think that's necessary either. For people playing the numbers game I guess Java, Python and JS are the languages to pick.

It's not as ubiquitous as Ruby is currently either, despite Ruby declining quite a lot you can't really compare the 2.

There are a lot of happy devs who can find Elixir work, it depends a lot on location, past experience etc. I do think the number of jobs advertised is fairly low compared to demand. SO on one hand it could lead to high salaries. On the other hand it could lead to not all people landing a job (which if you look at the comments some people here are complaining about).
