Unity is leaving quite a bit on the table by not being on a modern version of .NET. Unity's C++ side seems to have (or had) assumptions about the garbage collection. Progress and challenges on .NET in Unity can be seen in this frequently updated forum thread https://forum.unity.com/threads/unity-future-net-development...

Unity's long term plan appears to become more tightly integrated with .NET and to avoid maintaining their own .NET stuff.

Yeah back before I switched to Godot for my game dev dabbling I was keeping an eye on info about the upgrade to a more modern version of .NET, but I got less and less interested and saw Godot 4 was going to have .NET 6 out the gate so just switched (and all of this was before Unity went full idiot which fully removed any interest I have in going back).
