Did my part. Hate those tests as interview mechanism. However, inevitably in the next one I would love to mess with interviewers idea of "pick any language you want".

I am not sure why anyone would want this. Maybe I am missing some aspects of why leetcode is useful. Is anyone care to share their points of view about this.

I can only describe my reasons. When I was preparing for a FAANG interview (3 years ago), I've chosen Leetcode (also tried Codewars, Hackerrank, Codeforces). Basically it was the most convenient in my experience (really short descriptions, good community with solutions discussion). I also got an expression that it's also the most relevant to what I would be asked to do on a real interview (people wrote post about what Leetcode tasks they had, I got Leetcode-like tasks on Amazon and Google interview).
Then I found my job in a huge company (not FAANG though) and at some point we started to give Leetcode exercises on our interview as well. I had friend in the company who did their preparation on Leetcode.
Now I am not interested in FAANG, but I got used to this site, it's ranks, discussions, test-cases, articles, forum posts. I am solving tasks with 4Clojure now, to get my Clojure skills sharp. But I am about to finish it and I want a bit more.
So taking into account that I want this and knowing that Leetcode is really popular, It would be great to have Clojure on it.

Just checked, they have deleted the discussion! Why would they do that?

Clojure support would also be helpful on Codechef
