For your own sake you should get out of the Java bubble more often, learn new languages and paradigms, just saying. You will be a better developer.

Your reasons to like Java are superficial because they apply to other languages as well, and they are subjective.

Other than C# I don't know of any language that is trying to replace Java, the other solve specific problems, some better than Java can (which is good for everything).

Why do you think C# is trying to replace Java?

It doesn't really, but is the only one that it could, as in the broad raw of language features it can offer to tackle about the same amount of problems in the same way (lots of features, big accent on OOP with a small amount of FP).

They are both corporate-level-monolith based languages, they feel good in that area where you have thousands and thousands of classes everywhere, with long build duration.

Is java or c# is good for enterprise just because of thousand and thousand of class?
