I read the article and don't find any of the points compelling. I think it has more to do with factors other than the language itself. For instance there are other languages both using the JVM and not with good frameworks.
Perhaps Spring Framework/Boot is declining in popularity, but that's just wishful thinking--and my real beef is with Hibernate+JPQL.
Oddly Java itself as a language is better than ever and still improving.
