Also Dapper fan. I like mapping into objects without code generation and complicated queries are easier to write compared to LINQ if familiar with actual SQL.

Also Dapper fan. I like mapping into objects without code generation and complicated queries are easier to write compared to LINQ if familiar with actual SQL. Only thing I really don't like is bulk inserts as it will do one statement per object. You can still use both Dapper and LINQ at same time but it might confuse others.
