I'm surprised that Crystal[1][2], a heavily inspired by Ruby compiled language, was not mentioned in all of this. Though it has more of an issue than Elixir, where various people can feel it has not gained enough traction[3][4] (according to various rankings). Elixir at least ranks in the top 50, per TIOBE.
