gollark: Kotlin contains OOP and bad Java tooling.
gollark: Lua is very elegant but annoying sometimes and libraries.
gollark: Rust's really nice but I don't actually want to care about lifetimes all the time, and the compiler is slow. Python is very fast for me to prototype with but not very robust.
