Sounds like I was absolutely right alright, and so was @thisislife2. Just yet another pitiful case of falling for the "hard truths <-> hurt feelings" reversal.
Not even sure why. Something being niche is not a knock, not one way, not another. Such a weird thing to throw a sad fit like this about.
I interact with Assembly everyday and many of those around me do too. So I wouldn’t label it as niche. If there are thousands of people doing something in computing, it ain’t niche. It’s niche when the numbers are much smaller than that.
Judging by the downvotes that other guy got, he wasn’t “absolutely correct!” as you seem to claim.

Quick web search suggests there are 4.4 million software developers in the US alone. For the record, I think a lot more people touch assembly weekly than your bellyfeel figure, but it's still nevertheless worlds apart. Such a weird thing to try and deny. Not even sure why you'd feel compelled to per se, it's not the coat that wears you.
