Proposal: Update VB.NET color in GitHub Linguist to align with official branding and remove conflict with F# #633

Description

@S1deSky

I'm collecting votes to see if the VB.NET community is for changing the GitHub VB color from purple to blue. The colors I'm referring to are the language graphs you see on repositories:

Below is the VB.NET logo.

Here's the current comparison between F# and VB.NET colors, and why it's problematic.

The colors are almost the same, makes it less readable, and the color also doesn't reflect the logo correctly.
From the VB.NET logo, I've picked the darker blue (#30b9db). It doesn't have to be this one in the end, though.

If this vote gets support, I can forward it to the Linguist team responsible for changing the colors.

I'd love to hear opinions! Please react with "👍" if you support this change, and "👎" if you don't support it.
