"Honestly, for most development tasks, C# is the way to go. It's more high-level and easier to learn, plus it's widely used in Windows and Unity dev. C++ is still a beast for systems programming and performance-critical code, though."
I gotta go with C# for simplicity and readability. If you're building a Windows desktop app, it's hard to beat the .NET framework. Plus, it integrates well with other Microsoft tools like Azure.
