>What is better in this day and age? That is highly subjective, as certain stacks are only available for certain kinds of tasks. What a web developer finds enjoyable is not the same as the Linux kernel contributor will enjoy.

Personally what motivates me is the domain of the problems I am trying to solve, such as contributing to the digitization of my countries' companies and industries.

Once you find that for you, you won't think much about technological stacks, unless the one you are stuck with is god-awful.
