I even found at one point an F# to JS compiler/transpiler and was able to set up a webpack config that let me write F# in a JS project.
I'd love to be able to use this at work - unfortunately my coworkers were less excited about pursuing this.
I was wanting to work with people who cared more about the work they were doing than those I had been working with. I thought functional programming was a way to so this. I thought that by learning these languages that I would find the programming promised land of good tools and good users.
I never found anything like that though. I couldn't find many jobs using these languages and the few I did seemingly were too difficult to be hired in. And I was never successful in evangelizing them in the roles I was already in.
The F# landscape seems to be worse than it was a few years ago. And I am fairly certain it will never change for the better. I think being .net hinders it in a way that the JVM doesn't hinder clojure. C# is a pretty good language and platform and the community is fairly aligned with the Microsoft's direction and influence on the ecosystem.
Also check this page for a list of companies that hire without a prior Clojure experience required: https://jobs-blog.braveclojure.com/2022/03/24/long-term-cloj...
Almost every day a new job appears, so there are definitely options, and feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions at all (e-mail in my profile).
