I feel like it's coming back as the "just use this" after the flashes in the pan of the last few years. C# seemed like it had a shot at the throne but the ecosystem is in deep disarray these days, tooling wise.
- tonyedgecombe 10y agoC# is fine if you stick to the Windows ecosystem, the cross platform stuff was released far too early in my opinion.
- JBReefer 10y agoI agree - even with the VSCode stuff, they're missing their major competitive advantage: Visual Studio.

Maybe in a few years it will be good. Java on the other hand has support for many IDE's, package managers, web servers, JVM's, OS's. You can swap out pretty much everything, no vendor lock in issues at all. The open source community is far stronger as well.
