@shinmera Given the timestamps of your post and your comment on the Reddit, I assume you refer to this blog:

https://daninus14.github.io/posts/Why-is-Common-Lisp-not-the-Most-Popular-Programming-Language.html

Reddit conversation:

Clearly the post is half-nonsense, but I can say this as someone who went through the same process of falling in love with this language and being at first disappointed about the lack of a "big movement" in this community.

However, what I would be interested in is why this does yield such a strong reaction an your side?
