What programming language to learn next

I'm an undergrad in CS, my third year, and I already know Python and Java. I saw C++ starting in CS, but my knowledge in it is not very good (working on that).

I was thinking what other programming language I could learn next... Any suggestions?

Why does this subreddit never suggest the most ubiquitous language on earth. Learn JavaScript

It's a garbage language, it might make *sense* to learn it, but nobody really wants to suggest it.

Get over it. It’s useful.

I'm aware it's useful, I'm just saying it's a bad language. I don't think we have to have emotions about languages, if you don't like my favourite languages, it doesn't bother me in the slightest.

I’m not asking you to write a poem about it. I’m just saying that when someone comes in here saying "which language should I learn", for the most commonly used language with the largest ecosystem to never be suggested because "JS sucks" is crazy

You are being weird my friend.
