I'm thinking that this also has more to do with the sorts of jobs that would end up on a job board (like Indeed or Monster or Dice) versus the types of jobs that appear in the "Now Hiring" HN sections.

.NET being more of an enterprise technology, I'm not surprised that the first step would be for HR to make job postings on Indeed or other sites. With Node, I don't have the same impression of it being accepted in the enterprise yet (though MS is pushing it with Azure, for instance), and it's also such a young technology that not too many organizations are hiring maintenance developers for legacy projects yet.

The relative trends chart is exceptionally misleading.

View on HN

I don't see many job postings on HN for C# developers. When I do it's usually for senior developers and doesn't offer remote.

That is not true. First of all, there are at least a few c# opening each month in whoishiring monthly.post. Second, a quick inspection on these posts already gave me a few of these opening that were both looking for junior dev and supports remote.

I saw one posting for a C# consulting position January and February. Wanted 5+ years of experience and a degree with no remote option.

just did a quick galance on feburary whoishiring post:
