It is true for us.

If it wasn't forced upon us for Android dev no one at my employer would even bother to learn what is Gradle.

The opinion is that it is the last spot keeping Groovy alive.

Jenkins also semi-recently decided to go with Groovy for their "pipeline" feature. Ugh.

(They may have good reasons, but anything that prolongs the lifespan of Groovy is a bad thing.)
