After years of Python and TypeScript, I've started using Java as my default for everything. It's just so much more productive. The ancient developer memes that Java is slow and clunky don't apply anymore.
Postgres also had a long-held reputation for being slow and difficult, but it made incremental improvements for decades and now it's the default choice for databases.
I see Java in the exact same position, as the Postgres of languages.
