Learning Haskell was a joy and it made me a better software developer. However I don’t reach for it when developing production software. The advantages doesn’t outweigh the disadvantages (compared with using more mainstream languages). I also highly recommend learning Agda/Idris/Coq/Lean/F*. They are to Haskell what Haskell is to mainstream languages. Learning them will make you a much better developer. Even if you never use them for production code.
