I feel seen with this comment and I'm glad I'm not the only one that has been feeling this way.
I'm about to start a new position that uses C#/.NET and seems like a technically mature/sophisticated organization. Finding this position was hard though.
If that fell through, I was thinking of ways I could try to switch tech stacks. As you stated, the types of companies that gravitate towards .NET are not the types of companies I want to work for anymore.
Not to mention, after talking to several recruiters, it seems like salary for .NET devs are much lower than counterparts in other languages. I'm probably at the top of what I can expect to make as a senior engineer in .NET. I spoke to a few recruiters who recruit for other stacks and my salary is what senior devs typically start at for those organizations.
