I did the same path as you.

I think that the procedural programming is much more common because of the academic and work experience of many programmers. Functional programming is a transition of the way of thinking that seems not worth it. But after I got my hands dirty, I found myself writing much more clean and consistent code in every language. I enjoyed particularly Clojure because has a good ecosystem and tools, and also take some design decisions to steer you for a more robust code. https://clojure.org/about/functional_programming#_immutable_...
