My feeling is that 'Object Oriented' has basically become a dirty word among forward looking programmers. I don't really think this is because of a problem with the idea of object oriented programming, so much as a GIGANTIC problem with the most prominent languages which describe themselves as object oriented.
IMO, object orientation does not need to involve things like single-dispatch classes, concrete inheritance, and other bad ideas promulgated by the prominent OO languages which newer languages are trying to distance themselves from.
