I’ve never been a JS on the server person, I was used to other languages when that was developed.
Well I think I would prefer python, but simply because it’s “more traditional“ and I realize that’s specious reasoning, I prefer to use strongly typed languages whenever possible.
I would generally reach for Java since it’s the language I’m most proficient in due to my career. There’s also Go, which I played with long ago, or maybe I’d try Rust.
This is only for anything important. If I was just toying with something locally I’d probably do whatever was fastest. In that case Python or JS might be my choice for a very tiny script.
