I can't see why you'd pick Java over C#. IMO its basically all the same preferences with slightly more consistent syntax choices. That said, Java is great too. It's underrated considering what a workhorse it is.

First, C# has much smaller ecosystem. Half the stuff I was used to have for free and a very good quality was paid and much more limited in C#.

Second, the more I worked with C# and visual studio, the more I hated it. It was pretty much the opposite with Javascript, typescript and even Java.

Well the ecosystem is different than the language but you can certainly find 3+ of any library you need in Java where .NET usually has a single choice.

I use Jetbrains for both Java and C# and the experience is essentially the same.

C# is far more complex than Java. It’s a kitchen sink language.
