You鈥檒l love it! C# is awesome.
I recommend VS Code with the C# Dev Kit extension if you鈥檙e not on Windows (otherwise use Visual Studio).
JetBrains Rider is also solid.
Don鈥檛 be turned off by XMLs and package management, modern stuff in the .NET ecosystem (e.g., dotnet cli) make this a very smooth experience.
Also, use .NET 8 馃檪
