Strong advocate of open source here. That said, in an enterprise setting, for all of Microsoft's other faults, C# is damn near bullet proof. Some enterprises, like mine, can't rely on community supported tooling for life-critical systems. If something breaks, we're near instantaneously on the phone to a dedicated support rep to fix the problem. I learned C# and Java years ago during my IT degree but had long since forgotten them. The enterprise I work in uses C# a fair bit. Only started to pick up C# again in the past few months, and holy heck, I forgot how pleasurable it is to work in C# again. If the third-party components used in some software I help maintain supported JetBrains Rider, I'd use it in a heartbeat. Visual Studio (not Code...) is okay, though I'm not tripping over myself to use it. PyCharm and IntelliJ have spoiled me.
