Countless companies, huge and small -- from Apple and Amazon, to Google and your friendly local startup, plus all the enterprise world that's not a .NET shop...

In what parallel universe is not Java immensely popular or not used for green projects?

Hopefully in every universe where Kotlin exists.

I can think of at least one universe where Kotlin exists, but most new JVM development is still in Java.

Kotlin is meaningless without Java.

It is a fools errand to think Kotlin/Native would ever overtake Java.

Only on Android it might have a future, if Fuchsia never becomes a thing.

Kotlin might become the default Java syntax, that's what the GP is saying. And I agree.
