Used Scala in production for two years and have been writing Kotlin for a year now.
I'd still prefer Scala to Kotlin any day as I still think it's a stronger language. We had to use arrow library to make Kotlin more like Scala. Especially if you're leaning more functional, standard Kotlin will be lacking.
That being said, Kotlin's entry point is much much lower for Java programmers. Kotlin is a better Java, so I can understand the appeal. I'd never start a new project in Java when Kotlin is available.
