Professionally, I mostly use Kotlin, Typescript, and Java.
For fun, I've recently been using BQN, which is quite nice compared to J, which I had been previously using. I also use Elm, Rust, Python and a smattering of others.
The APL family of languages aren't the most popular, but there seems to be cult like followings of each variation.
Yeah, I think they're just the more vocal subset of users. The same thing happens in functional languages. (Especially Lisp.)
Array languages in general are fun to use because you can express a great deal in very little space. Of course, you have to think more about how to encode something, or even when reading. I feel like those are good muscles to exercise for when you're reading more densely written code in any language.
