The more it goes, the more I think Gleam isn't meant to replace Elixir or Erlang at all. I would have expected much more emphasis on the BEAM, showcasing hot code reloading and fault tolerance using supervision trees in a live server app (just like we have in Elixir and Erlang). But the direction Gleam has taken recently seems to be towards developer convenience, which is nice _as long as_ there _is_ a compelling reason to code in Gleam in the first place. I'm sure with Lustre and some other libs they're working on making Gleam a serious language, but so far it's not able to do what Elixir does.
