A strange mix of languages here.
One product is nearly pure C++, but is starting to also use C#.
Another product is nearly pure C#, but uses a smidgeon of C++ to interact with the first product.
Yet another product is pure C#, but uses a batch of P/Invokes to interact with other product written in C++.
Finally, a few new web-based products that use a mix of C#, JavaScript, Python, and who knows what else.
All of these products are in active development and hiring.

I do Java, and I also have worked with python. Python is a funny experimental language, easier to work with than any basic dialect I have seen for non programmers and that is why it is immensely popular with AI/deep learning crowd. I have also some recollection, that it was gaining popularity with automated testing crowd.
In my experience, python poses little challenge when learning it if you are already proficient in other programming languages.
If you wan't to learn something new, maybe try picking a pure functional language?

I probably doubled popularity of Python in all these lists few years ago because I had to google literally everything that was more complex than a=b+c...

First, I think it depends on what you WANT to do since you seem to be wanting to learn a new language. Forget the goofy indexes; most are based on searches rather than applications and if that's the case, asking questions is a more of a poll as to who is learning a language. Working on a desktop app, I can write C#/VB without much googling and don't use public GITs. Working CSS I'll have a lot of questions, mostly because I have my own concept of which attributes should be there .
Looking to do web, android or apple apps, back-end, IoT? Then look at the "stacks" being used for those purposes. The problem I see would be without a portfolio of specific experience in a given language, you're going to be outcompeted by those with experience.
Python is sometimes promoted as an overall solution, but probably not used as much as one might think.

I am a bit late to the party. Are you sure you are asking the right question? I would ask, in what domain do I want to work? Desktop algorithms/GUI ? Serverside? Web-frontend? Or “fullstack”? I hate that buzzword.
A colleague got a job (car-sharing) where they use Kotlin (“some-next-gen-java-ish”). It is a less common languge. He did not claim to know it. Got the job anyway.
Many companies involved with crypto-currency-trading are using Rust. Firefox got rewritten in Rust “recently”.
Voi electro-scooters use Go on their servers.
Visual-studio-code , Slack, written in Typescript. Wrapped in the Electron crossplatform container. Runs on “any” OS.
So…. Ask yerself in what area you want to work. Research tech used in that area.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!" - Hunter S Thompson - RIP

Originally an abbreviation for 'Able Bodied', which meant fit to be sent up into the rigging in the days of sail.
