Trying to decide on Scala or Kotlin
Whoa! Never expected a discussion about FIRST here! My team in high-school was actually the first (and only afaik) to use Scala to program their robots. We developed a functional framework for writing robot code (https://github.com/Team846/potassium) and even contributed support for 32-bit / ARM targets to Scala Native so we could compile our code to native binaries ahead of time. Our 2018 robot ran Scala Native the entire competition season https://github.com/Team846/code-2018.

What's the state of server-side frameworks with Kotlin support today for small teams?
Explicitly so:

Anything close beam/otp for other languages?
I really like Eclipse Vert.x... As both an Erlang dev and Java dev, it's a great synergy and soon to have support for Virtual Threads similar to BEAM.

Go doesn’t do any magical stuff and I love that
There are many lean, popular, non-magical libraries in Java land. (https://quarkus.io/, https://vertx.io/, etc). Spring is a monster 😱. Its like comparing Kubernetes (written in Go) with some lean framework in another lang.
