Modern dotnet core really is great and people should give it more consideration. It is not 2016 anymore.

C# is beautiful and there are others (F#) if you prefer on the same platform. There are some great modern and well supported libraries to use for almost every use case. You can get into the nitty gritty if you want with easy interop and control over memory layout.

If you need your product to scale eventually there are good bindings/integrations for all cloud platforms with good support. The core is incredibly fast and getting better every release. The tooling is great too. (rider et al, and dotnet cli is good too)

I've worked with python, go, java and c# and nowadays I much prefer the dotnet ecosystem.
