I have 20 years programming experience and C# is one of my favorite languages. It feels so expressive and doesn’t get in your way nearly as much as Java does. I feel like I’m writing the code I want to write instead of writing the code someone from 30 years ago with a fetish for boilerplate wanted me to write.
Lol, yes. I can actually get things done in c#. Even fast and also complex.
In java (which I have to use for android) it’s really aweful. Sure I’m no pro, but it also sucks to have to be a pro (and dedicate most of your time to a single thing) to get shit done.
C# is a great language but I’ll always choose Java because the ecosystem around it is so vast. Often times some client library you need has a c# port maintained by one guy and he hasn’t updated in years.
OK you probably need it more often than I do. But so far, I always found anything I needed for C#. But I’m surely no measure of course, I’m a casual who only codes stuff i, myself, need. And just me/wifey.
I’m not a big M$-fan but I actually like c# a lot. Java not so much.
I’m no pro though, I just guerilla-code in my spare time. But of all the languages it’s actually my most used. Besides PPL and ASM 😁

Microsoft Java is one of those cases where MS got the “extend” phase so well executed that they didn’t even need to finish the plan.
That said, the language is only good if you insist on using either it or Java. And the ecosystem around it is really, really bad.
You can’t really kill a programming language though
Companies are going to continue using it just because it’s what they used before
