Striving to become a master Go/Cloud developer; Father ๐จโ๐งโ๐ฆ; ๐ค/((Full Stack Web|Unity3D) + Developer)/g; Science supporter ๐ฉโ๐ฌ; https://coder.today
I liked doing this for a long time, beside juggling between back-end I also did Unity,Desktop, Mobile ..
There are definitely benefits for doing this, one of them is speed of assimilating a new language, after 5-6 languages I learned Core Java in 10 days or so.
But I reached a threshold in my career where I'm starting to see the downsides. The two major areas affected by this, in my experience and fields are:
salary/high expertise positions (you will do more and get payed less)
my brain (as in I have to throw away a lot of cognitive load to be better in X languages instead of 1), and keep me up to date.
