I will say depends on what you want to do. If you just want to play around web or you dont know why you learn it, then go for js. If you want to play with mobile, then kotlin or swift or dart. If you want to make you life harder, then go for C++.

After all, you will find that their syntax are geting more and more similar in recent years. You know one language well, you can pick up another's basic knowledge very fast. The most important thing is given you a reason why you have to keep learning it.

PS: I have started with js when i was 12 and the reason was I just suddently wanted to make a website to show off to my brothers. 😂
