no, you are not alone, I was laid off when the pandemic started, and I got a job doing web dev, I won't go as far as to say I "hated" it, but I didn't like it, I since did a software engineering internship, where I did automation stuff library dev, and went back to finish college, and specifically applied for a job where I won't work in "web stuff"

also, jobs that aren't about doing cloud stuff config do exist, if you really dislike that, you can change jobs (unless you can't? what with financial stability, depending on your situation)

if you're skilled at programming, even if you've only ever used one language, you should be able to program in another, you might not be as skilled as your preferred language, at least initially, but that shouldn't be a problem in the long run
