But still many good stories to tell. And apparently LC Ltd just hired a 
new Brand & Digital Marketing Lead, so I imagine we'll see those stories 
told.

Personally, My 'take' on LiveCode is that, generally, it is ideal for
boutique programming, for specific free-standing applications.

It is also excellent for teaching children programming concepts in a
relatively digestable way without dumbing programming down in the way
block-coding efforts such as Scratch do.

As such, there will always be very few advertisements for LiveCode
programmers.

That should not, in any way, devalue LiveCode.

Demand.

Their methodology note explains it's based on job listings. When was the 
last time you saw a job posting for LC skills?


It's also a short list (50?).

This one ranks by usage, listing the hundred most popular, where LC has 
only been in the top 50 a few times over the years I've been tracking 
it, but is often in the bottom 50 (out of hundreds of languages not so bad):
