Yep. In the ASP / VBScript days I dipped my toes into that but found it underwhelming.

But now with .NET on Linux, MAUI cross-platform desktop, pushes for open-sourcing, .NET foundation and exceptional performance of ASP Net Core I'm planning to take the U turn and invest in .NET knowledge.

For the kinds of systems I work on, .NET is very appealing. Strong competition for Java and Go, which are great as well.
