Microsoft does use Go/Rest/Java in places but they still have a ton of .Net.
Windows Development is not "We are not dogfooding", it's that incentives are misaligned with customer wants.
.Net team incentives are aligned with customer wants, provide a language that is highly performant and easy enough to write.
Oh, they really don't dogfood Windows development any longer, regardless of the incentives.
I have my WinRT 8, UAP 8.1, UWP 10, Project Reunion, .NET Native, C++/CX, C++/WinRT, XAML Islands, XAML Direct, WinUI 2.0, WinUi 3.0, WinAppSDK and what not scars to prove how they aren't dog fooding any piece of it in any meaningful manner.
Heck they keep talking about C++ support in WinUI 3, as if the team hasn't left the project and is now playing with Rust instead.
They managed that plenty of early WinRT advocates became their hardest critics, while not believing anything else they put out, like now this Windows K2 project.
