I'm at the fork in the road where I can go .Net or everything else 🤔

Why not all?

I'd rather not do .net lol

@Seethe Talking strictly career path, when I come across a position that is .Net focused, it's usually exclusively .Net and Microsoft tools (which are nice). Then you have positions that have a combination of pretty much everything else -- sometimes including .Net.

So that's the main "fork" I'm talking about here. I know this doesn't fit all cases but I'm making it general lol

@IAmDevloper IMHO, get really great at one thing before approaching something else. Knowing a little bit of everything just makes you know a little bit.

learn .NET, get a job in Buffalo, NY. this is a real thing.

@BellAppLab You're right, here's a quote that seems fitting:

"But I figured I better be prepared to take any job I could get, and be willing to learn as I went. Now I’m a jack of all trades, proficient in several technologies" — master of none.

If you're just starting out, Jack of all might get you in the door, then you become an expert in the tech that's used where ever you land. Most places don't expect expert level to start.

@IAmDevloper even if you are working with .NET you're not JUST working with .net. If your working on a modern system your probably working with typescript, one of many database technologies etc. You can't be a strong developer without knowing at least 1 stack very well.
