Should I learn Java or C++?Lets discuss!

Happy New Year fellow developers‍‍!

I’m a self-taught developer with a background in JavaScript and Python. I’ve been considering which language to learn next: Java or C++.

Here’s my situation:

• I don’t have a formal CS degree, but I’m passionate about learning and expanding my skill set.

• I’m pursuing AWS certifications, so cloud technologies are my big focus.

• I’m looking for a language that will complement my existing skills and potentially open more opportunities in backend or systems programming.

I’d love to hear your thoughts! Here are a few questions to guide the discussion:

1. Which language did you find easier to learn as a beginner, Java or C++?

2. How do you see the relevance of each language in today’s job market?

Your insights will not only help me but also guide other self-taught developers in making similar decisions. Let’s share experiences and learn together!
