Without specifics about what its you're talking about, I have no idea what you're talking about.
What do you understand as Lisp? Does it include Clojure, Janet or Hy?
Every project has its unique struggles.
The adoption of absolutely everything outside of some half dozen popular things is virtually nonexistent. It has nothing to do with their syntax, because the field is full of wannabes striving for popularity of their project, by means of deliberately imitating the syntax of what is popular. It's not working; they're only ruining their project with garbage ideas for nothing.
Most of what is not popular is non-Lisp. Making a non-Lisp is as good a path to unpopularity as making a Lisp.
Some Lisp-likes are integrated into popular run-times and can use their ecosystems. Robustness of the ecosystem is obviously a non-issue for them. They can be used gradually; like a few files of some project written in another language can be in the Lisp-like. That counts as a valid use.
