This is exactly my sentiment as well. I'm still deeply in the Java ecosystem. It was stagnant for a while, especially between Java 5 and 8 (which spanned multiple years). But now that it's modern, and it's moving quickly... I see less and less need to use these "better Java" languages.

Interesting. There are tons of great new languages these days, but the sheer mass of existing libraries, documentation, tooling, etc... make it very difficult to break in and gain momentum. I feel that three major languages emerged to dominate (not to be confused with being loved!), at least for now: Python, Java and C/C++/C# block. All for very different use cases. And JavaScript for the browsers, of course.
