It's true that I don't use Python or Java (although I have used it in the past - wasn't a big fan, and now C# seems so mch more powerful) and do use Typescript and (unfortunately!) Javascript. Python is something I do want to get into though, just to find out for myself.

There are some great .NET libraries for working with RabbitMQ, such as EasyNetQ, Chinchilla and more recently I'm loving RawRabbit. There are also good libraries for working with ElasticSearch, and I use Marten a lot for using Postgres as a document store (great library).

The place I work is indeed an MS shop, but we're all open minded and use other stuff occasionally at work, and quite often outside of work. Maybe we're in the minority there too though; I know plenty .NET devs who do have tunnel vision, but I suppose you get that across al languages.
