It was six years ago. Try again, maybe? Clojure is slowly but steadily growing. The world is never "ready." It was never ready for Clojure, OCaml, for Smalltalk, for Haskell, for Purescript, for Elm, for Erlang, for Elixir - yet teams are using them, there are conferences all around the world, libs are being written, podcasts recorded. There are jobs. I started writing Clojurescript 3 years ago, and since then I can't find a better alternative for myself - a language that is well suited to build awesome things and makes me happy. I have changed 3 different jobs since then and never settled for anything but Clojure. Never had a problem with finding a job.
