Last 5 startups have used .NET, all of them have migrated and all new projects are on .NET Core. Every major dev shop I know starts new projects on Core.
It's mostly legacy and enterprise apps but it wasn't until .NET Core 3.0 (released last month) that it was viable to migrate everything perfectly anyway so it'll take time for that to filter through.
This is nothing like Python 2/3. .NET Standard has been out for a while and all the major libraries are compatible with both runtimes, and that now includes desktop APIs too.
- sebazzz 7y agoIf you have one product (like startups) it is easy to port. You have, in relative terms, nearly unlimited budget and incentive to stay on the latest and greatest. If you work in a place where you develop many products for many clients, budgets are lower and you have much to maintain and develop. Porting is in my experience almost never done, because there is no business case to justify it.
