Anyone else into Java?

[IngsocSimp]

I've learned multiple programming languages and engines and, in my opinion, nothing beats plain old Java. It has so many libraries, it runs quick enough for most tasks, it's cross compatible, and easy to learn.

Languages like C and C++ are system-specific and low level and as such they alone are more trouble than they're worth oftentimes. Languages like python are slow and limited in their capabilities (no native graphics libraries for instance). Engines like godot don't have enough info available to be truly learnable and they are often buggy.

Java is free and lets you build applications or games from the ground up with ease. The only real competition I'd say would be Javascript/HTML in browners, but I still prefer Java.

I like C# better, it is essentially the same (kinda) as java, I would never use it for the frontend though

I do think C#'s approach of compiling on the recipient system is superior to Java's JVM, but I despise Microsoft so I intend to stick with Java. Plus there's not much C# support on Linux which I use. Also from what I hear C# isn't as good about backwards compatibility or preserving older features.

I sandbox all my developer tools since most of them clutter your "~" directory, this also prevents spying with their shitlemetry

but I despise Microsoft so I intend to stick with Java.

Same, a lot of microsoft products suck. I like C# though
It kinda sucks how they have eaten up a lot of developer tooling/ software, i.e. C#, Typescript, VSCode (ew), Asure
I especially hate how they have introduced WSL, because it gives no reason for windows developers to switch to linux

C# mogs

C# mogs

I was going to comment this but people would've called me a looksfags normie .org user, this is the plight of graycels
over for graycels

 

[edgelordcel]

Yea its way better than bedrock

 

[GerbilCel]

C mogs when it comes to speed.

 

[BlackCel_from_ZA]

C# mogs

Depends on what you want to do though. Webdev C# absolutely mogs, when it comes to creating malware C# mogs, when it comes to windows api calls C# absolutely mogs. I literally don't see a single instance of java mogging unless you absolutely hate microsoft, which many people do. Ohh and when it comes to game dev C# mogs

 

[cripplecel]

I have done C programming the most

Is there a reason C# is used and focused more in webdev and game dev or is it just that one day people decided they personally wanted to build everything up around it?
