I took a look at Unison a short while ago when I saw it mentioned elsewhere on Lemmy and I’ll say what I said before: Their Hello World example, and by extension the rest of the language, looks very weird and unwieldy to me. With the repeating identifiers and relatively alien syntax I’m having a hard time seeing this catch on.
I dabbled in Haskell, and my time with it was very enjoyable. I grew comfortable with the syntax over time, so I’d say try the language for a few days/weeks (really depends how fast you learn) and see how it makes you feel.
I definitely suggest trying out Haskell. I followed the Wikibooks guide, and ever since using Haskell, I haven’t been coding the same. Functional programming can be amazing.
I’ve never heard of Unision. A quick look at it and it seems interesting, but very foreign. I’ll try it out and give it my thoughts.

Functional languages aren’t for everyone.
