Really good.

I'm in a startup using .NET. We deploy to a variety of targets including AWS t4g (Arm64) instances in AWS as well as x86/64 targets in GCP. All devs are on M1 Macs. Our build pipeline is GitHub Actions Linux runners. Our DB is either AWS RDS Postgres or GCP Cloud SQL Postgres with a mix of EF Core as ORM and Dapper (for more complex read queries).

C# has, over the years, converged with TypeScript so they are very similar[0] (though no Duck typing in C#). Good mix of OOP and FP paradigms borrowed from F#. F# interoperates with C# so it can tap into the larger C# ecosystem.

It's a good platform; very productive. CLI has a functional hot reload (much more limited than Node on JS as the granularity of module replacement isn't quite as good).
