I resonate with this. The churn I find most demoralizing is in the library/module/component space.
I’ve been pushing myself to learn elixir these last few months. This is, by the comments of many, more of a niche language. I like the language’s novelty and it has caused me to think in new ways. So Paul is righ in this pint.
But when I want to send an http request, there must be at least 10 choices on hex to choose from. The one that is a hit this year will be passe’ next year. When I watch the traffic in the Phoenix slack channel, the “stack” of libraries combined seems overwhelming. The same goes for people talking about front end apps.
