It also depends on how boring you want to get. Any company with a mainframe will have a large amount of 'boring' tech stack, even if it is paired with newer offerings. The core might be RPG or COBOL, but there's usually a layer of newer languages around it that has had time to crystalize.
For historical reasons, this is also heavily tied to the adoption of EDI. So I'd start looking for boring tech stacks in areas that have EDI documents associated with them: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X12_Document_List https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X12_Document_List
