Sure, a bunch of companies use Julia but none of them are backing it the way Google backs Go, Oracle backs Java, or Mozilla (formerly) backed Rust.

Didn't hurt that much for Python, Ruby, not having a big name in the early days.

Just like I would consider MIT and a few of the companies on that listing as relevant, doesn't need to always be a FAANG.
