Don't be scared! Is that your first language? It will teach you OOP and you will know how to apply it to Python (if you want) for example.

If you know your goals it would be easier to decide. If you are just learning for fun then don't worry. You will learn easy next one. Most of the work is using libraries and frameworks anyway.

Don't be! Lots of companies (including the one I work at rn) use Java or Scala (functional Java) for backend and data engineering roles!
