Some journals and conferences are starting to accept Typst.

Personally, the huge difference with LaTeX is that if I want to do something slightly complex that is not covered by a third-party plugin, I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty and script it myself, whereas in LaTeX, I dread writing macros that do more than being notations/shorthands.
