@abr@mastodon.cloud it might be low on GitHub lists because an explicit design feature is minimizing LOC.

@copiesofcopies@social.coop A fair point, but it also shows up low in lists based on PR count rather than LOC. I do suspect it might be underrepresented because OSS projects are going to bias towards languages that people want to use for hobby projects, while Elixir is optimized for some very specific solution spaces that will turn up more frequently in production than hobbies. I’m just surprised because I’ve heard far less buzz than I would expect if adoption is spiking.
