> Is Scala still competitive to modern languages like Swift and Rust?

Of course it is... swift is a mobile PL, and Rust is barely used non-academically (and also takes a long time to be productive in).

Scala let's java devs immediately hit the ground running, for better or worse, and it's hugely popular in the real world.
