I've got the full intention of keeping up to date with .NET. After all, no job is permanent, and there's every possibility that I'll be using .NET/C# in my new job anyway.
I meant jump as jumping between companies, as I could always stay where I am. The main problem I've found is that very few companies go by the same belief that a developer can transition between languages/stacks. A while ago I applied for a job requiring a Scala developer with 2 years experience, and was turned down despite having 8 years experience with .NET.
Despite looking for stuff outside of .NET, I'd happily stick with the framework. Windows rarely lets me down, C# is a fantastic language, and I know the tooling around it well enough to benefit most teams in some way. Outside of moving for other reasons, I just feel that it can only benefit me to learn another stack. It's just a scary process, as for the first time since work experience during uni I'll go into a company not feeling comfortable in my knowledge of the language/stack.
