Two obvious problems

- you aren't applying actively

- your main language is Haskell

Ok, I've been applying actively, but not often, mostly because the amount of Haskell offers is limited. I'm willing to change language, and I'm currently considering Rust. Is this a good idea or is it still too niche?

Rust is certainly a more employable language than Haskell, but why do you have this paradigm of having one obscure language that you think is the language you "do"?

If you have a good amount of experience, you should be competitive for a lot of jobs where they use C#, Python, JavaScript/Node/TypeScript, etc.
