I’ve always loved Haskell as well, although the most I did with it was writing a small language interpreter for a CS class.

It’s amazing how much better major languages could be. They’re slowly getting better - I started out using PHP 5 at work, and the improvements since then (eg PHP 8.4) are HUGE. I’ve used modern C++ extensively as well.

I love Rust more than either.

If you like Ruby, Loco RS is really neat as a(n immature) Ruby on Rails replacement.
