The biggest rejection comes from the strong windows orientation and the restrictive licenses. Now that the situation is improving for both, you will see the language gain traction.
- dpwm 10y agoDespite the strong windows orientation, there was an era when shiny new GTK desktop apps (f-spot for photos, banshee for music) were written in C# using the Gtk# bindings.
- WorldMaker 10y agoI was a big fan of F-Spot, Banshee, and some of the others. The antagonism on some of the mailing lists against these Mono apps was part of my disappointment in some of the Linux community of that era. (Ubuntu moved some of these into the default distribution, got a lot of vocal minority flack from it, and removed them.)
