It's interesting to me that articles mention godot before unreal. I mean this is not the first time I see it
That's because both Unity and Godot use C# while Unreal uses C++ for development. It is much easier to move from Unity to Godot since they use the same language for development. Moving to Unreal basically means starting over.
Pretty sure Godot has it's own scripting language (hence the prompt converting all the C#/JS code from Unity).
Unreal is C++ but it's also another commercial proprietary engine, so they could rug-pull in the same way.
Godot supports C# as well as its native python-like GDscript.
