Which language do you think you’d be most comfortable speaking?
First and foremost, I used both C# (.NET, Entity Frameworks, and Nuget packages) and Java (Spring, Hibernate, Maven). I am neither pro-Microsoft nor anti-Linux. I try to maintain a curious attitude toward emerging forms of technology as much as is humanly possible.

Now, one of the reasons for this is that you can start learning a language like C# or Java and then move on to another language once you’ve mastered it.
So, if you know how to use one programming language, you already know how to use the other. This is due to the fact that Microsoft C sharp, a language that was released after Java and is partially based on Java, also incorporates elements of C, C++, etc. In any case, if you know one language, you’ll pick up the second one very quickly; consequently, learning a second language can only improve your future employment prospects in either field.
Depending on what you’re attempting to do, there’s an additional reason why you may want to select one of the alternatives.
