Agreed. I use incredibly obscure programming languages, devices, hobby spoken languages, games...in almost everything I do outside the norm, not because I'm trying to be different, but that's what I like. The parent comment is just saying the market (most people) have spoken and we're not it. Just like I doubt you're an avid Java fan on HN (you might be, but I doubt it). The market has spoken on that and Taylor Swift...etc.
I may be a 'person' and not 'people', but imagine if we all had to drive the same car, or live in the same type of houses, just because the majority preferred it that way...
If there is enough of us who want something different that making or providing that thing is viable, then we should be allowed to have it, and have no-one criticise us for that choice. It is after all supposed to be a free world.
