The first language that I learn was Python but than I started to learn Java, and I was so frustrated, because it was so complicated. Now I’m learning kotlin and a love it. It’s an amazing language.

Java is SO frustrating now. I never really understood it until I switched. Now I cringe whenever I have to do something in Java. (Writing this blog post made me shiver, too. lol)
