I used to love Java mostly for its batteries-included well designed standard library. Despite the verbosity of the language itself. But over time the language has really evolved a lot and gotten a lot more pleasing to the eye (in my opinion).
But nowadays I see the language improved a lot, avoided async/await and added virtual threads, added records, now Valhalla, decent lambdas and tons of quality of life improvements.
In the meantime C# became a monster of 2000 ways to declare properties init get, set, backed, not backed, stackalloc, structs, etc.
And I know it is done for performance: but Java is still you have a value type or a reference type. That simple. And now, on top of it Valhalla.
I think Java stayed overall more stable and simple.
C# is still pretty good, but it is just more complicated.
They added so much new syntax to C# to the point it really is starting to feel like C++++ whereas Java has modernized itself without massively expanding its syntax and modifiers.
