What a thought-terminating cliché. It sounds reasonable while saying nothing. "Useful ideas, but..." what? "But it's not popular"? Neither was Python before it become one. But it doesn't have a big ecosystem? You're describing a consequence of adoption and presenting it as a cause.

Like I said: Clojure runs significant chunks of Walmart's infrastructure, Nubank's entire banking stack serving several hundred million customers - for a second, Nubank is the biggest digital bank in the world; Apple uses it; Cisco uses it. Emacs Lisp runs one of the most enduring pieces of software in computing history. You you ever used Grammarly - it's powered on Lisp; This very site runs on Lisp.

"I don't encounter Lisp in my work and that feels meaningful to me" (there's no other way to interpret your words) is just another, personal opinion that has no practical, objective angle. "The Curse of Lisp" opinion, at least back in the day had some objective relevance that no longer holds true.
