> Gradle is too ant-like
Kinda fascinated by this opinion, I was never a fan of either ant or maven, but I find Gradle perfectly fine for Kotlin, maybe there is either a little difference between Java/Kotlin, or I was mostly spending my time with "old" maven setups, or something completely different. I'm not saying ant and maven have a lot in common, just that I didn't like either.
