undefined | Better HN

As far as the metrics state, Clojure never faded away. It's on an upward trajectory still, albeit slowly. Perhaps it faded away in terms of "HN hype of the day".

That said, I've been (and currently am) a Clojure engineer for the past 5 years and loving it. Quite a lot of jobs out there, more and more each time I look, healthy ecosystem and friendly community. It doesn't hurt that it's the most paid programming language as well.

The jobs seem to be pretty available in Europe, but I've been struggling to find Clojure work over here on the west coast of North America. I've had to bite the bullet and am looking for work in other languages now, though I'd really rather stay in the ecosystem.

Are you active on the Clojurians Slack channel? On #jobs and #remote-jobs channels every now and then a US job pops up there. You can also post on those channels that you are open for work, might help. I'd also check out some EU job offers (unless the salary is way lower compared to your location) because there are companies that do async and wouldn't care for timezones as much.
