C++: what I used to be very proficient at but then the 1990s ended
c#: I barely knew thee
Kotlin: I do java, what does Kotlin bring me other than android?
Go: isn’t that C renewed?
PHP: it appears to have evolved into a real OO language in recent years. I’ll still avoid it

PHP: The only one on the list that is dying. No one starts a new project in PHP in 2023. Like Cobol it will hang around in legacy systems for decades, but it has been superseded.

C#/C++: The big thing missed is that almost all games are done in one of these two. As long as video games remain a multi billion dollar industry they will prosper.

Python: Any project is just better if you can do it in Python. It’s the default language for all Computer Science programs and will continue its steady rise.
