What do people here like better: typed or untyped functional languages? (self.functional_programming)

My first language was Racket and so naturally I gravitated to the lispy untyped functional programming style even when I was using languages like Python or Java, but when I tried Haskell for the first time my mind was absolutely blown and I was a convert ever since. What are your thoughts?

I'm in the typed camp. There is a reason every untyped language adds type annotations sooner or later
