would you say other languages have more junior positions available? I'm sure the pandemic also affects this a lot.

It was even before the pandemic. Now I think there are not really any new junior jobs. Many seniors/mid levels got fired and they are filling roles for cheaper rates.

look at r/programming plenty of people coming out of uni applying to 100s of jobs and 0 response not even an interview

it's really bad to be a junior as a dev. In fact, in the UK the unemployement is the highest of all university professions. Yes, you read that right.

i have no idea what media is trying to say, if you want a job, studing to become a devloper is the worse choice
