For the last few years, I have considered Kotlin a language very close to Scala: it runs on JVM, it's strongly typed, it has immutable collections, and some FP community.
What you will read below is based purely on the exposure allowed during Advent Of Code. This means I have no real understanding of the community, ecosystem (library availability, maturity, trends), or more specialised language features.
