I've used both, Scala and Kotlin, and I like Kotlin very much. A programming with more features is not necessarily better. The limited features of Kotlin (compared to Scala) are an advantage, if you change your point of view. Some advantages: * easier to learn (a Java dev will be more productive than in Java in a day or two) * easier to maintain since Kotlin doesn't allow so much hard to understand code constructs * fewer discussions about the one true style or way to do something * it's easier to build good tooling * much faster compilation * smoother Java interop * performance implications are more predictable
