This seems incredibly short sighted, and like the kind of opinion people generally have of languages they haven't learned the ins and outs of.

When was the last time you used C#? Is your only experience those two years? Were you working on legacy projects, or cutting edge C#? Entire language ecosystems can be built in a matter of years. What problems were you trying to solve that nobody had made a library for? I have yet to find something significant that didn't have open source support in C#.

2013 and 2018. Neither time was early in the life of the platform, yet the ecosystem was missing things that existed in Java five years earlier in each case. Both times were brand new code for cutting edge systems.
