I never, ever bothered to learn React.

Stuck with .NET/C#.

If I have to write web UI, I use Angular, Blazor, and Razor MVC.

React never made any sense to me, and the more I saw people using it, the more it reconfirmed my belief that it was a no-go.

Usually, people win if they do the opposite of what the mass is doing :)

.NET and C# are the opposite of what everyone is doing?
I never, ever bothered to learn React or .NET/C#.

Stuck with C/C++.

If I have to write web UI, I don't.

React and .NET/C# made sense to me but are nauseating abominations of mediocre corporate tech, and the more I saw people using them, the more it reconfirmed my belief that they were a no-go.

Which version of C++ ?

Love the comment.

All the versions! (I'm a "Modern C++" acolyte.)
In what context? Startups?
This must be satire, at least I hope
Nope, its what I do.

Same with kubernets/microservices/insert-buzz-word - if I see a lot of evangelists praising it - then I know for sure to stay away. :)

Yes, I am aware that .NET is popular, but there are always exceptions.
