We at Cachix have also moved on from Haskell about two years ago and I'm sure someone is going to make a comeback with a language that takes the lessons from it but starts from skratch.

We need more general purpose Elm languages in the space.

Isn’t tgat language Rust, practically speaking?
I would love to see that happen!
what did you move to, and why?
Rust, mostly because:

- haskell exceptions and laziness are devastating for production

- too small ecosystem, had to write 10+ SDKs (now with AI that's less of an issue)

- haskell ecosystem is too fragmented due to prima donna prevalence
