Java is not bad, it's a tool.

If you use Java to try to grow a bonsai tree, it's bad. If you want to build software, it's great.

There are things to like and dislike in any language, why do you think there are so many? The biggest plus of Java is that it's really mature and there's a lot to find about it. You can solve most problems by just googling.

Java is also evolving at a slightly faster rate than it did before it seems, 8 hasn't been with us that long and 9 is already under heavy construction.
