Reality check - about market prospects of Elixir/Phoenix

The jobs channel on slack, threads on Twitter, and posts on this board have picked up in the past year. For my own amusement I scanned through the “Who’s Hiring Dec 2021” thread on Hacker News and put together a tally of hits per backend language—this isn’t unique per posting:

  • Elixir - 14
  • Rails - 44
  • Python - 62
  • Node - 32
  • C# - 9
  • Rust - 32
  • Golang - 15
  • Java - 6
  • Kotlin - 12
  • PHP - 9

Elixir is doing alright :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:
