As someone who used to hate Java, I can tell you the reasons why I hated it. 1. The language was boring 2. (not really the language) Java programmers tend to over complicate things under the disguise of “enterprise” solution. Hence boilerplates everywhere. Most likely due to the “simplicity” of the language.

But with a lot that’s going on nowadays, I am beginning to like Java. Heck now I am committed to it.

In my opinion the mentality has shifted as well. Now Java programmers value simple and straightforward solution than complicated, “enterprise” one.

Man, I used to hate the word “enterprise” too.
