PHP or C# for remote work?

Question

PHP

Good day!
I must say right away that I have read everything on this topic here. I am familiar with the general principles.
I live in the region. I have been working with C# for six months. I write simple desktop applications. There is only VS 2010. I can’t install anything else and I don’t have the right to. The new VS is also in no way, the request was sent, but when everyone will install it is unknown. There is no internet either.
I have only my phone. I can read something from it and somehow develop, the workload is not very large.
I understand that there will be no good development, only self-development remains. I set a goal for six months to a year to switch to remote work. I have no plans to move to the city yet. I have my own place to live and I really like the city. There are no problems with self-control, I calmly work in my free time every day. I really want remote work (freelancing is also possible, but June is more likely to die of hunger).
Most tend to PHP, since there is a lot of remote work (my goal for the first time is 30-40 tr / month). But maybe that's not the case with .NET Core 2 now? I see quite a few vacancies for juniors with the same salary. So the choice arose of what to choose for my tasks, taking into account the availability of free time at work and owning only VS 2010 (I repeat, I can’t install anything else, I can’t even run Open Server from a flash drive to learn PHP).
How relevant is VS 2010 to this? I'm also interested in the relevance of ASP.NET MVC 3 (the 4th install, I think I can) in VS 2010. Should I consider this as a trump card for faster learning (and not just evenings and weekends, compared to PHP)?
And a little more information - I am engaged in web development. Nothing complicated. WP + Elementor, some edits. With experience, I plan to take more complex orders (websites and stores with non-standard functionality). I'm looking at Upwork.
Total:
For six months, switch to remote work for 30-40 thousand (considering VS 2010 at work and nothing for PHP).
Plus, I want to not just switch to remote work, but to get a skill with which I can get a job in an office if I decide to move to a millionaire.
Love for these two technologies can be taken as a constant.
Thanks to all who answered!

Answer 1

Dude, what you can do on that and program, less time stomping on stupid questions

Answer 2

Working in an office is much easier than working remotely.
Finding one-time orders for a beginner in PHP is much easier than in .NET.
Experience is acquired much faster in a large company than in a startup, and even more so on one-time orders.
To the middle level, remote or freelancing will pay very little due to the large number of unskilled workers. The difference between a middle and a junior in freelancing in terms of salary is large, in the office it is insignificant.

Answer 3

Microsoft technologies will usually be in a large company, while php is more likely to be small sites. If you want to decide where to stop - study job offers on hh.ru
Do you have internet on your phone? well, work with it. buy yourself a keyboard and be happy.

Answer 4

1. Without an Internet, you can forget about remote work.
2. Language does not matter for remote work.

Answer 5

C# is more promising in the long run, as it opens the door to large corporations with long-term projects.
PHP is in great demand, but, basically, these are sites of different sizes.
To summarize: C# has fewer vacancies, but better pay. With PHP, remote work is faster, but the pay is lower.
To roll on 30 tr. - definitely PHP and Bitrix. Maybe even more will come out.
