If you think it will add value to your career** (this is very subjective though) and the community, then yes, it is worth learning. I have 12 years of experience as C# Developer and have seen evolution of C# during these years. There are many resources available and the language is easy to learn. That said, we shouldn't compare it with other languages, as there is no one size fits for all. For example, Python has more tools available for ML and golang is being adopted widely for distributed systems. As Industry is moving more towards API-first approach, I believe, we now have more choices on selecting right language for right task. Apps can be built all in C# or mix of multiple languages.

To conclude, I agree - C# is worth learning in 2019, 2020, 2021 and for next few years to come.
