I sometimes feel like I'm taking crazy pills happily toiling away in F#. Am I missing the boat or am I on it? Or maybe it is me lamenting the idea that languages like Rust get all this mindshare to create interesting libraries. There are lots of interesting languages out there for all sorts of purposes, but as far as I can tell, F# is the sweet spot of general purpose language design. My only wish is a very similar subset of the language for embedded programming, and no, that isn't Rust.

(I love Elixir as well, but it definitely gets a lot of attention and isn't as general purpose.)
