Is Erlang still relevant?

Many other languages now have both language features and libraries/frameworks for doing similar things to Erlang's main selling points.

Languages that are easier to work with for most, e.g. syntax wise, better tooling, etc.

I see little reason to pick Erlang for any greenfield project.

"Erlang enables you to write scalable, concurrent, distributed and fault tolerant systems with soft-realtime latency guarantees"

Not unique to Erlang.

Not even the author realizes he does not actually answer his why.
