First, "One month web dev, next month apps, the next month microcontrollers, next automation" that is _incredibly_ generalist. You'd probably be better off specializing at least a little more than that. If you only were doing two of those, you'd still probably count as a generalist :)
Second: I don't think there's one right or wrong answer to this question, but a generalist is in some sense a safer option. If you specialize, take care to specialize in something that will be around in 10+ years. Now would not be a good time to specialize in coffeescript or coldfusion for example, but specializing in Rust seems very safe. Specializing in julia, zig, or dart would be on the slightly riskier side.
