Should I switch from frontend to backend?
I have been working for about a year as a junior front-end developer (react), at the same time I am studying at the correspondence department of IT, where I naturally study CS.
The problem is that you want to design and deal more with logic and architecture, databases, algorithms, and sometimes you sit on the frontend and suffer for many hours with some kind of custom scroll or some other garbage, you feel sad and meaningless, or you study abstraction over abstraction, or you suffer in the limitations of different browsers, etc., etc. In addition to this, there are enough problems for the future as well, I won’t describe them. I want to get away from the visual part, I always had enough consoles for pleasure. Of course, there is something to design on the front-end, but it cannot be compared with the back-end.
Do you think this is a sign that you need to leave, or for some reason to stay at random and "take root"? And on what platform? I think that node.js will now be advised since I know JS - at the CRUD / REST API level, I mastered it (although there is something to master), in particular mongodb / express, but after reading opinions about node.js, as I understood it in mainly used as a BFF (backend for frontend) or some kind of balancer in front of the backend on other platforms, in medium and highload projects they are most often skeptical.
Now I liked the .net platform (there is work near the area, there is work everywhere, it is not going to die, it copes well with tasks), how long will it take to switch to it to the position of a junior?
You can also say that the entire standard CS is still at a basic (beginner rather) level, not to say that I am very good at mathematics (especially), OS, databases, networks, but I am in the process.
What do you advise? Any advice would be great to hear. It is possible to dissuade it altogether)

Everything is individual and determined by each person according to their own feelings. Not to say that the modern backend is much more complicated than the modern frontend. He's just different. With your nuances.
There must be personal chemistry and interest.
In the end, you have to try and decide for yourself. In the end, some backend experience will not be useless, broadening your horizons and increasing your competitiveness in the market.
