In your spare time [if you still have the energy and disposition] try to build small projects using other languages that are in demand on the job market such as Java, Scala, Kotlin, Go, Python etc. If anything at least you will gain a better perspective about what are the alternatives and what are be the strengths and limitations of Node.JS.

Pick a different type of project. If you keeping doing projects where node and js are the best solutions, it will feel unnatural to use something else. Try embedded systems, or real time audio processing or something interesting like that.

I've tried a bit of C, and recently I started playing around with Rust, so yes definitely want to do something like real time audio processing with that.
