Why do programmers like using Java?
Java, in my opinion, is the most royal language that doesn’t suffer an inferiority complex, unlike most other languages.

Other languages feel they need to bend over backward and satisfy the needs of the lazy developers who want to write as short and ambiguous reserved language words and variable/method/class names as possible.

Other languages require a huge amount of mental mapping that has to happen in the developer’s head in order for the developer to read and “compile” the code in their head, because of the shortcuts they take.

Other languages allow the developers to shoot themselves in the foot, and as most developers are really bad at what they do, the amount of shot feet is unbearable.

Code is written once and read 10–1000 times. Java is verbose and prose-like and lets you focus on logical thinking, rather than mind-mapping.

Java is official, ceremonial, royal and with high self-esteem - it gets the job done and it gets the job done right. You adhere to Java’s strict rules and so many amazingly good practices, and Java won’t let you down.

Java doesn’t use heaps of illogical syntax sugars that you have to memorize by heart, which otherwise don’t make any sense.

Java is versatile in the regards to that it can run everywhere.

Java is the perfect object-oriented language, it predisposes the user to craft code using the design patterns, the SOLID principles, the clean code and clean architecture, which makes it great for serious business, it makes it great for education and many of the best books on software engineering are written in Java because of that.

Java has a great name, too.
