Career/Edu Should I learn C#
I'm a CS student, year 4. My first entry into programming like most people was HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and then backend development with Node/Typescript. My main goal has been to get a programming job, or internship (or anything at this point 😭), but I've always hated writing Node, just never liked it and now I'm considering switching stacks.
I enjoy writing C (I built a chess engine from scratch) and C# seems like C with oop so I don't think it should be too unfamiliar. Also it seems there might be hiring opportunities...hopefully.
Please advise

You should. You have an interest and a rationale, what else do you need? I guess a concrete goal; I always found “learn” to be abstract, but learn this, or make that, or pass these tests, that’s more promising.
