commonlisp (sbcl) is one of the best sleeper techs out there. one of those if you're in the know type industry secrets. part of it is because their website looks like something out of the 90's. clearly having a nice website and some level of marketing is necessary to get adoption. Im more than happy to see devs use AI to automate that so they have more time to focus on their creations.

Isn't lisp getting advertisement every couple months here or so. After so many decades I don't believe the reason lisp doesn't have traction is just marketing.

Given that Hacker News somewhat famously was written in lisp, "an advertisement every couple of months here" probably translates to an order of magnitude less in places that have a lower density of long-time lisp fans from the early days.
