I've been doing backend dev in Node/TS for the first time recently after working mainly in Python or Ruby for many years. And overall I have to say I'm not very impressed. The tools and frameworks are immature and it's annoying having to deal with all the unfixable flaws in JS.

If I were starting a new company today I would certainly seriously consider Java or Kotlin instead.

Do you mean because there's no Rails or Django for nodejs?
Yeah that and things like ORMs are less mature.
