>what makes js one of the most used languages is it's crazyness
No.. it's ubiquity in the browser alone made it one of the most used languages. Obviously, when there is only one game in town, that game is going to be popular.
People hate javascript and its "crazyness" so much that the entire universe of modern web development was designed around using other languages which "compile" to it so that developers could avoid direct contact with it as much as possible. What other language gets treated like a contagion by its own users?
