I'm not surprised Elm is not viable anymore at a medium or large company, despite continuing to use it every day myself for side projects. The creator has deliberately shunned publicity or popularity for it in the last few years so adoption and therefore hiring has slowed to a crawl. We still have a vibrant and passionate small community, but the emphasis is on "small". No matter how superior it is to e.g. React it will lose out at a company level if you have pay the price of retraining all your frontend devs to "think in elm" to continue using it.
I'm mainly sad that we'll be losing the chance of any future Kevin Yank videos about Elm. I really love the videos of his I've seen on youtube, including non-Elm ones such as the one about how to use VoiceOver for devs [0].
