For interesting usage - we built Unison Cloud (a distributed computing platform) with the Unison language and also more recently an "AWS Kinesis over object storage" product. It's nice for distributed systems, though you can also use it like any other general-purpose language, of course.

In terms of core language features, the effect system / algebraic effects implementation is something you may not have seen before. A lot of languages have special cases of this (like for async I/O, say, or generators), but algebraic effects are the uber-feature that can express all of these and more.
