Maybe not much that the OP miss. But then again there's nothing to miss from Java either since Java fulfill his requirements (maybe more than .NET can). If I'm a Java developer who has been using Maven for such a long time. I don't see the allure switching to .NET just because NuGet exist or whatever Packet stands for. The big data ecosystem is all JVM/Java. Android started off as Java. Sure they have Kotlin now, but I don't know how many developers switching to Kotlin in drives. Basically, the ecosystem of Java is already _there_ when MSFT is trying to catch it up so experienced Devs (a.k.a people who are already comfortable with the tooling) do not see the reason to switch. As for me myself, I used to intern at MSFT back in the mid 2000 drinking the .NET kool-aid. One day I woke up and realize that part of the hi-tech world that interest me, relies a lot on OSS and the large portion of OSS was Java. Fast forward to today, FAANG is mostly Java shop. Java seems like a safer ground for me to have a longer career. That's just me and my 2c. I'm too lazy to switch to .NET since there's no added value at the moment unless if I want to do back-office in-house web-app.
