ASP.NET runs on MacOS, Linux, and Windows.
Microsoft SQL Server now (also) ships as a Docker container that runs on Linux.

Do you ever use software that only works on Linux?
Do you use an Android phone?

.NET has not been a particularly Windows specific framework for almost a decade now.
Is a very sane tech stack, you're just biased against Microsoft.
Half the world's enterprise apps run on that combination, or a minor variation of it.
Like Java it is full featured ("batteries included") but unlike Java it is relatively terse and actually pleasant to work with.
Oh, and unlike Python, it is very fast, within spitting distance of compiled Rust and C++ web apps.
