I wouldn’t really leave behind the JVM ecosystem, which is much bigger and better quality than the .NET one from what I gathered (though it is still good and bigger than most other languages’). And other people’s code is the numero uno productivity boost, so it’s an important area.

I think I would be fine with a smaller ecosystem. I've seen a lot of projects that have made bad choices in libraries because there are too many. Sometimes I feel like if there was just one blessed jdk way it would be a lot simpler. Honestly, the only thing that is keeping me from .NET right now is async/await. Pron really did Java a service by pushing for virtual threads.
