Kotlin is considered better for new backend development - it's concise, null-safe, modern, and compiles to run on the JVM, like Java. Its expressiveness reduces boilerplate and potential bugs without sacrificing compatibility with Java libraries. Java remains great for enterprise and legacy codebases, but lacks newer language features found in Kotlin.
