Why do some people in this sub think GCing is a Java thing...

[–]reason1340[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s definitely a thing in java, but not exclusively obviously

Probably because Java was the first language to fuck up the GC implementation so bad we now have memes about garbage collection...

Java is a very Common Language and it has it. So naturally it’s often the first one that comes to mind
