I work in a technology that's great to work in but has a bad reputation in places like HN because of irrational bias, there's no recession and salaries are still going up. Glad it keeps the competition away.
Honestly they have some really interesting-looking roles open. I've also heard great things about working at Anduril and not-so great things about working at Palantir.
LINQ is powerful technology. Don't let anyone snub their noses at you.
If the only options for professional engagement were the languages popular with the HN commentariat (Python, Golang, Rust), I'd probably slit my wrists.
I've worked with loads of languages -- even PHP and Perl -- and would do it again without a second thought for the right company/project.
I do miss some of that nice syntax sugar.
Then say it. :)
