I agree with others that the Getting Started material isn’t great and documentation in general is a struggle sometimes. It’s also a “chicken and egg” problem: the smaller size of the community means sometimes community packages are not available or appear abandoned, which in turn scares off adopters.

Stepping back from all that though, what I will say is that Phoenix itself, LiveView, Erlang concepts like GenServer, the community’s willingness to help, and the language itself - all FANTASTIC.
