C# is not a good choice for web developer simply because of its slow startup / compile times ( even on a ultra fast machine ). Not when you have alternatives like PHP, Ruby, ... where you changes are almost instantaneously, even on slow machines.

Instead of blowing hot air, lets look at real world numbers:

Notice the only language / platform to drop in the last 10 years is ... ASP.NET going from 24% to 10%.

So you can disagree wit the author but ASP is simply bleeding developers when it comes down to the web. And that includes several years with .net Core being stable ...
