That could be a huge misunderstanding, though. My initial recommendation was kind of a joke. Seriously, what language you should learn sort of depends on what you want to do with programming.

Wilbur Jaywright Fair points. Speaking of COBOL just like Java if you do learn it, expect to be paid well if you happen to be contracted to fix something in said languages (especially COBOL due to how little people know it and are currently getting into it). Remember that scarcity + demand = value. So while both may be outdated (they are and there is better options for sure) it’s important to remember what companies need and want is what determines our livelihoods. My 2 cents.

Samuel Adjei make your own question post. Don’t piggyback on someone else’s.

First, unlearn Java. It’s useless now outside of legacy code.

Well, as I understand it, Oracle kind of shut it down. It’s now supported through OpenJDK, but as far as I have seen, barely anyone is making new Java apps.

If you already know a language, then try to use it in building some applications, you may try to learn framework like for Java it is springboot

For mobile app development on Android it seems Kotlin has taken over so if that’s the route you’re looking into feel free to learn that, whereas previously Java was most prevalent. Or learn a quality Java framework (so you can get $$), such as Spring Boot.
Also don’t worry about people saying you knowing Java is “dead” or “outdated” as it is still a heavily used language in the IoTs, and banking/ecommerce/government applications which have already been built and maintained in Java for a long time. In fact based on the TIOBE index and redmonk, it’s in the top 5 most used as of 2024. Good luck 👍 ))

Arguing for Java because it’s still heavily used in government applications is like arguing for COBOL or X11 for the same reason. Java is just slightly newer, so it hasn’t started to smell yet.
