It's my professional daily driver since 2018 but I consider it an average-to-disappointing language and ecosystem on top of an incredible VM/runtime. For more specific thoughts, back in 2020 I've previously posted some critique here and very little of these concerns are improved in the interim. There is a vestigial ML story around libraries like Nx/Axon. LiveView is inadvisable in practice but is sort of the banner marketing device right now, which disappoints me.

Slightly related to elixir: Gleam is being developed in Rust and runs on the same VM/OTP runtime as Elixir! It also works great together with Elixir and Erlang.
