Java and JavaScript are blights and should never be used.

I'd add TS to the dumpster fire. It's a gilded pile of poop

Imo TS is basically the diarrhea that is javascript, pushed together and polished. It looks nice, works great but you are, in the end of the day, still working with a pile of diarrhoea

TS dev here. Yep.

There's worse, but not by much. Looking at you, PHP

That's the popular opinion tbh. Even Java devs admit Java kinda sucks.
