It's almost like "Best performance of all languages!" is not that important of an requirement for a language to become popular :)
- runarberg 4y agoBeing the native language of the most popular information sharing standard in the history of humanity surely must account for something.
- polishdude20 4y agoI don't think it's a surprise honestly. It's the language used for creating programs that can be shared with anyone who has a browser. You don't share the code or the software and tell your friend to run it. You share a link to a webpage and it runs there. It's the language that underpins the most shareable form of software out there.
