That's a matter of taste.

I enjoy "bloated" languages. Many languages are bloated nowadays, but the community agrees what set of features to use, what to avoid. Still, those rare features can be useful for stuff like making DSLs through clever use of the language.

It's much worse to have a minimal language that takes years to add new features, like how Go took over a decade to add generics.
