Yes, I see no new interesting projects for years started in Java. I've been working with Java for a long time. At first it outperformed C++ in ease of development. Large enterprises created software of humongous complexity with that but Docker emerged and Java fell out of favour as it's startup slow and it couldn't never fullfill low-latency needs with its GC magic. And eventually, it fell in a trap of any long-living tech - it became complex, with snobbish communities, no easy way to adapt to new realities, though it tries but it fails: failed to integrate itself with browsers, failed with computing graphics, failed with scientific libraries, low-latency servers and now it starts to lose ground in general computing. The only argument in its defense is that it's widespread - well, yes, but it's a miserable argument for a prefessional.
