I have come across very few companies that offer both, well paid roles and interesting products with .NET for the past few years. .NET is my preferred environment but I had to move away from it.

While you are correct, it's not difficult to get hired regardless of the tech stack you work with if you are competent. However, if you care about the tech stack as well (and it is .NET), then the task becomes much harder.



What did you end up moving to and how did you do it?

I’ve been noticing what you’ve posted for awhile in regards to interesting opportunities and .NET, or lack there of.

Not sure how to make the switch to something else though.


I have moved on to developing Clojure and later Go. I still want to go back to .NET with C# once the opportunity is there.

Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of fun working with other languages and I have learned a great deal. If nothing else, then I feel these experiences made me a better C# developer. It's just that I feel underwhelmed by what the other languages have to offer.
