I would have said that a year ago but I'm not so sure now. I actually think Kotlin is at risk of suffering the same fate as Ruby and perhaps Swift: so stereotyped into being viewed as a single domain language to the extent it gets ignored by the mainstream. To some extent Groovy suffers it as well - as soon as you say it people think either Jenkins or Gradle and recall their last nightmare debugging session trying to reason about its crazy dynamic behavior, all the while blind to the fact that it has huge general applicability to all kinds of application development. I even think this is starting to hurt Python where now everyone thinks it is for data science.
