Don’t understand this. I dislike Apple in many ways, but MacOS is an objectively very solid operating system.

Completely fair

AFAIK it’s an excellent language let down by political in-fighting in the ecosystem and subsequent fragmentation of is otherwise ‘standard’ libraries. IMO this kills the language.

Kotlin offers most of what Scala does with a much more solid and supportive ecosystem, it’s the obvious winner in the ecological niche of ‘better JVM languages’, for me.
