Re:From First Principles: Why Scala? by occupy_paul_st on Thursday February 11, 2021 @10:13AM (#26102255)
I actually haven't seen a language that can do everything that Scala can do, so in a lot of senses I agree with you!

The alternative is to use multiple different languages to fill different niches. In theory this sounds suboptimal but I think it might actually be easier to learn multiple simpler languages than it is to learn Scala.

BTW according to PYPL: Swift, Kotlin, TypeScript, and Rust are now more popular than Scala.
