Nobody here wants to say it, so I'll just say it and face the downvotes...

JavaScript as a server-side technology sucks. It was cool back in 2010 when NodeJS first came out and event loops were all the rage. But .NET is now 10x faster than NodeJS, statically typed, has better community support, better tooling, broader official libraries, better package manager, and as a bonus it's not JavaScript. The productivity and performance of .NET with Visual Studio is just unmatched.

IMO, the only true part in your comparison is that .NET is faster than nodejs.
