Java has a lot of advantages, but that's a crazy statement. I feel like literally everyone complains about basic stuff like public static void main, over reliance on factories and OOP, and just how much code you need to generate for some basic stuff. I'm not a Java hater, but I am glad I don't have to use it anymore.

What's the issue with public static main?

And whats the issue with factories? Factories are a design pattern thats not specific to Java, I'd recommend you read the design patterns book and understand why they exist. I also have 0 factory useage stuck in my mind and I have been developing with java since 2016.

OOP? It's an OO language ffs, that's like complaining that C isn't OO. If you don't want to use an OO language don't use one.

how much code you need to generate for some basic stuff

Do you mean verbosity because thats only a complaint for people who dont need to maintain stuff long term. Or maybe you misused java for doing something simple where python would have sufficed.

And then there is the springboot framework that makes shit trivial
