I'm not a programmer, but why is Java so high up? Are that many devices still running it?
A lot of commercial apps are built with it. And if you're not using Kotlin, you're probably using Java for Android dev.
Java is the dominant platform for web services, and some companies including FANGs even standardized their whole infrastructure around it.
Also, Java is basically the default programming language in some degrees.
