Ironically I met my GF online because I mentioned I was a Lisp developer and it turns our so was she.

Not surprisingly it turned out we knew a lot of people in common, so it's surprising that we hadn't previously met. Sounds like you might have a good dating niche.

Like Lisp it's multi-paradigm

I for one am surprised. Are there only a handful of Lisp developers in the world or something?

It isn’t common, but they are easy to find because they’ll let you know.

Well, there was an academic bias (I left academia for industry long ago but stay in touch with many past colleagues; she lived on the campus of $MAJOR_UNIVERSITY when we met).

I think it’s less that there aren’t an enormous number of lisp developers (though perhaps there aren’t) but ppl who use Lisp mostly do so in certain domains.
