Of course! Have friends who work with it on a daily basis. My comment was mostly tongue in cheek, didn't mean that Forth is completely dead. Usually when seeing Forth though, it's bit older stuff than say PHP. My friends for example, are stuck trying to refactor very old code, written in Forth.
What do your friends do with it? It’s very high on my priority list for new languages to learn, and finding a job with it someday would be very interesting.
One set work with maintaining old software for a national bank and the other set work with software for a huge international company that are not IT focused but ended up with software and firmware that just been ticking along since forever.
I'm not jealous and don't think I would bear working like that every day for months. Take a hard look and try to build software with Forth before you try to use it professionally.
You might want to actually use it first before thinking you want to use it more. Forth is simple because it is primitive and passes the cognitive load on to you.
