Ah interesting, so I'm relatively happy working with C# and .NET. I'm interested in what you think might be lacking, is there an example of another language with some tooling not available in .NET?

Note: not trying to pick a fight, I'm legit interested what I might be missing since I feel like my needs are pretty much covered :)

My .NET experience is about 1 year out of date, but at the time the ecosystem was in a really great spot. First class Linux and Docker support, your choice of editor/IDE with VS, Rider, and VSCode, and nice test and profiling utilities.

Historically though (pre-.NET Core), .NET was always in a Microsoft bubble which held it back as the industry consolidated on Linux and Docker. The person you're replying to may agree that C# tooling is currently pretty good.

The list is shorter then it once was, but high quality Bazel support comes to mind.
