We are EOL'ing Elixir at work - almost all of our stuff is built with Rails. My personal web projects are back to using Rails. I also never did contract work that produced Phoenix apps because I don't want to leave clients with something that they can't easily find support for later on.
Lots of great ideas in Elixir, Phoenix, and Ecto, but it just didn't hit the critical mass or completeness that makes the Rails ecosystem impossible to walk away from.
And because abandoning Rails is not a practical option, maintaining brainspace for an additional thing that is not widely used and nearly identical in function is not worth the cost.

Sadly.
