Kotlin is IMO easier and less error prone

I'm no Kotlin expert, but I think Kotlin has a far more extensive core language and requires a heavier cognitive load to get up and running than Java.

It might have better developer experience and be less error-prone, but that comes at a price of admission that newbies have to pay.
