    I think the definition of best programming language here is not popular and hyped but “the one I use”. I really believe Java is worse than Rust for contributors. We’ll see how it goes.

        JS only has “Java” in the name, other than that they’re pretty different languages (basically: JS is a clusterfuck, Java is a “get paid by the line” hyper-explicit enterprisey invention with deployment horror stories).

        Despite their names, Java and JavaScript are very different languages and they really don’t have much in common, so this doesn’t make much sense.

        Really? I mainly code in JS and to be honest, Java gives me C# vibes.

          Definitely. I just mentioned JS because i think there are many people who only code for web. Or have js as their first language.
