Hi avidme. As a developer who came from the .NET world, I can tell you that you fears thankfully not real. Javascript is probably the easiest language to learn, apart from python. Mastering it is more nuanced, but you'll generally do fine

You should definitely take the plunge and yes you would have to learn es6... but you could start by learning typescript as the syntax to C# is almost identical. It’s not the usual way of learning JS but it could work and Typescript is awesome.
