I am building a quite involved video learning platform as we speak with Elixir and Phoenix. No regrets so far, and if anything as time goes on, I'm becoming more and more happy with the decision.
The community is really great and there's a lot of quality libraries available. Not just libraries, but entire production systems too. For example https://changelog.com/ is written with Elixir / Phoenix and their platform is open source'd at https://github.com/thechangelog/changelog.com. There's so much good stuff in that repo to learn from.
Also the Elixir Slack channel has 20,000+ people in it and the official forums at https://elixirforum.com/ are very active.
