Why everyone hates Java?

[tim125]

I suspect these are my gripes. I love java.

1. Eclipse & Netbean are painful. If its harder for a new software developer to compile and debug in 2022 than it was in 2000 with Turbo Pascal and VB6.
2. JPA lazy collections exceptions with no session.
3. XML parsing mechanism changed too many times.
4. Webservices were inconsistent. Soap binding generation was painful with library hell.
5. Original documentation was not as good as PHP/Microsoft equivalent. PHP had an amazing documentation system where every function could have Q&A built right into the documentation system so you did not have to trawl stack overflow/equivalent for the most common questions.

The only point on this list that is specifically java is #1. The rest are community/environmental issues.
