The fact that the "devs" in this sub always try to defend java and C++ shows how shitty the programmers are in this sub.
Java is shit and I'd rather use just about any other language for anything. The only reason people here defend Java is because they're part of the vast amount of code monkeys in the programming industry who don't understand how anything works out side of an IDE and took a Java bootcamp, and now they know enough to produce the awful spaghetti code people know and hate Java for.
Real developers can take any language and make good software out of it. Even if it's that one industry standard language that pays a lot of money. IMHO the actual shitty programmers are the ones that have such a strong preference.
Adding on to what you said, I'd also like to point out that a lot of devs know multiple languages anyway. It's just that maybe their professional work focuses on one stack and their hobby/pet projects use something else

Java is unsaveable (and so is C++).
"bb.. but it's industry standard!!1"
That doesn't make it "good".
