Just the syntax really. I work primarily with Go TS Dart. I just never liked the ruby/py syntax with def and lack of type safety.

I just stick to Go for all my backend needs. It does everything elixir is capable of and provides more than just raw IO handling without blowing up memory or struggling with computations. Never got into ruby either the syntax just makes me lose interest.

Makes sense! I on the other hand prefer more "human-like" syntax like Python and elixir provide, though I really dislike Python being so sensitive to whitespace (especially tabs vs spaces sensitivity)
