I think FP is a broad field and like OOP every language has its own idea how to do it right.

Haskell and PureScript for example feel to theoretical to me, with co-monads, lenses, pro-functors and what not...

OCaml on the other hand feels more approachable, but I don't really know why. All I can say that I don't feel bombarded with theoretical concepts when reading about it...
