Whether people "like" or "hate" a programming language is completely irrelevant. To quote Bjarne Stroustrup: "There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses." Just a few examples; C++ gets tons of bad words. It's still one of the most important languages. Java is not exactly everyones darling either (eg. I hate Java with a passion), and is still among the top3 of highest in-demand languages in the World, and will likely remain so for the forseeable future. Python (a language I love) is critizized a lot for its flaws (rightfully so) and is currently the top language in the TIOBE index. Golang never hears the end of it for valueing simplicity and readability over complex features and "cleverness", and yet more and more big Software is written in it every day, the ecosystem is thriving, the positions are well paid, and there is no sign of slowing down.
