Is Elixir Done?

Question

Hi all I've been a great supporter and a fan of the Elixir language and having built huge codebases of my side projects in it, I could feel the robustness and also enjoy the general nature of FP. There were, times when things felt more difficult and challenging compared to Ruby, which was something I was very proficient at before then.Looks like the trend for Elixir Posts and activity on this forum is in the decline now, was wondering what happened to it?! Are people moving away from it already?

Hackernews trends and activity mean very little for actual real world usage. If that's how we measure usage then Java and PHP are dead. HN is a bubble of new tech enthusiasts and explorers. Elixir is getting less stories? Well yes it's not new anymore ...so is the nature of HN.If you are asking about real world usage of Elixir that's gonna be a heated debate here...better ask it elsewhere maybe.
