Traction in the cloud? There's LOTS of Java in the cloud. Lots and lots. If
you mean "serverless", then you may be on to something, but Java is
definitely alive and well on Someone Else's Computer. :P

I'm curious as to how TS and Rust seem more advanced? I've used TS some,
and it doesn't seem TOO different from JS (which is pretty gross :) but
with types. Haven't used Rust, so no opinion there.
