> Entity is one of the worst, least productive I think that hits the nail on the head; I never got why anyone used that. We never did and we have been using c# for a long time (all over to Core now) and all the horror stories never applied to our work, I think, because we never touched entity.

That's... Odd. I have used a LOT of different ORMs and nothing else came even close to the experience of Entity Framework with its fantastic type inference and Linq integration. Bring your contexts into linqpad and you have one of the most transparent and streamlined ORM development sessions I could possible imagine. This was all with 6 though(IIRC) and code first; not with Entity Framework Core. There were certainly a couple gotcha's and quirks to get used to, particularly around initial modeling, but the unit of work pattern made possible with task local storage was spot on.
