Can you name other development platforms of similar scale/depth that don’t have this issue?
Compared to the whirring treadmill of frontend web development, I find .NET to be pretty easy to keep up with. Good IDEs (ReSharper or Rider) really help with the new language features (which are opt-in).
Outside of that, the ecosystem is large enough that there are quality blogs/articles/podcasts to stay current without sinking a ton of time into doing so.
