[bananas]

I market myself as a Microsoft stack technical architect in the UK. I'm equally as good with clang, python, Linux, postgres and redis as well. However the pay for that stuff is shit here and the utility of it isn't great. Most paying work is gluing things that already exist together and due to inevitable economic decisions and functionality sets, Microsoft is already in those places.

General logic in employment: pick a well paying niche and milk it.

.Net is a great platform if someone else is paying for it and you (usually as a function of the business) but if you're responsible for funding it, no banana - other stacks are more cost efficient.

If there's no .net market, it is usually that the area is technically immature (startups rather than large stable businesses).
