> Elm gets plundered repeatedly before it ever reaches version 1.0.
I concur. Ever since Elm 0.17 [1], when Evan removed event streams and standardized on The Elm Architecture, Elm seems to have lost its way. Just saying as an interested outsider.
I presume it is a matter of perception: Elm is now perceived as a GUI toolkit rather than a language in its own right. Elm achieved simplicity and, ironically because of that, it is now plain easy to port its main ideas to other languages.
