It might not be the best language, but it isn’t the worst by any means.
Yeah, it is what I consider extremely average.
It’s lacking basically all of the features that would make for a pleasant/fun language, but the features that it does have, are well-designed within those constraints, and the tooling doesn’t actively make me want to jump in front of a bus (which is a large feat).
Preferring ASM to Java is definitely not normal
There are still people who prefer Visual Basic or Pascal :/

It could always be worse. Look at the dumpster fire that is JavaScript
I would pick java over java script any day of the week.
I don’t think java is the problem. I even used to like java at college in the 2000s. I think the “best practices”, dependence injection and the “elegant paradigms” (that if you don’t follow you are an illiterate moron) make java a nightmare.
