Node. PHP, Ruby and Python are outdated. Go is great, but too niche, hard to find developers to maintain it. Java has just become too bloated. 30 years of crap being bolted on. Plus, their IDE is horrific.

Go's usually the one that scales best when a small team has to run the backend without dedicated ops help.

When I was writing code by hand, Python. Now that I'm writing it mostly with LLMs, Rust.
