Yes, C# is a jack of all trades and can be used at many things. Web, desktop mobile, microservices, CLI, embedded software, games. Probably is not fitted for writing operating systems kernels due to the GC but most areas can be tackled with C#.

Many systems programming languages with GC have existed since the 1970's, we don't seem most adoption mostly due to developer culture, and monetary issues with management.
