Java was the only language I used for a few years, and having to learn python after it is such a brain twister.

I remember a comment on reddit

There are only two kinds of language: The hated one & the one that no one uses

When someone gets negativeness about:
Java: Minecraft
C++: Unreal
JS: Every Website Existing
C#: Unity

Most people who hate Java have never worked on large enterprise codebases where Java thrives. Yes for your hobby project it’s kinda shitty, but when you work on enterprise solutions that generate tens of millions in revenue it’s incredibly powerful with a rich ecosystem. You do not want languages like Python for that.

most people hate java not because of the language.. but rather because of oracle screwing up

Used to develop native android apps in Java but i moved to Kotlin recently and it is sooo much better IMO.

Thank you! I am an eCommerce Java developer and of course I use it daily. I had a bad taste in my mouth at one time for Java, but once you understand how to write clean Java code it’s pretty slick.

when i started learning java i hated it now i love it more than python

[ahmedbahloul]

I find that good java code is easier to maintain and understand than a good python or js code

My problem with Java is more how it forces you into OOP, like you have to create a scanner object to read input instead of just calling a function. I had to create a whole bunch of objects that had different roles just to read REST data. It just feels very unnecessary.

> invents react and typescript

I would say the same for languages which are bullied these days like C++. People's past traumas are making them not touch that language again.

Java actually helps a lot because the coding syntax is similar with c# im currently focused on so it's not bad, just thinking it as a path lead you into next journey

[toslaw]

I don't hate Java, I just don't really like it and prefer other languages, but code in whatever language you want.

Java is an instrument, Python is an instrument, Rust is an instrument. Any language is an instrument. Don't blame instruments. Blame those who use them wrongly

Minecraft’s a bad example considering MS had to rewrite it in C++ (b/c why would you write a 3D game in Java dear god why)

Thanks for not making it a loop. Really appreciate it.
