big advantage to using C# is that it is pretty much identical to javascript.

Not from my standpoint. C# is different from JavaScript on the most fundamental level: it's a strongly typed language. From that standpoint, Java is closer to JavaScript than C# (there's no goto in JavaScript!).

And of course Java is much more broadly usable, whereas the Microsoft languages are only usable in the large but far from universal Microsoft space.

Microsoft still holds the advantage in tools (to some degree) but Java blows it away in reach.
