Still, in cases where one is tied to the Java ecosystem for whatever reason, surely Clojure is better than no-clojure?


I'd still pick something else in that case too since I don't really like the decisions behind Clojure. But hey go for it if it fits the problems that you find yourself solving.


There's always Armed Bear Common Lisp. which runs on the JVM, if you want to stay in it. And you can also try [Linj](https://github.com/xach/linj) which is similar to Common Lisp an transpiles to Java.


Interesting. Can ABCL be used for the same sorts of use cases as Clojure?
