For me, habit mostly. In the .NET eco-system I can do C#, but I have to think about it, and hit Google more than I'd like. VB.NET I am 100% fluent in, and for my own personal utilities (I am not a for-hire programmer) it's completely adequate. Porting stuff to Linux is a bit of a no-no though without using Mono. I would never actively write anything in VB6 though unless I was targeting an old 16 bit Windows platform. VB6 and VB.NET (2017) are miles apart as languages. I am not oblivious to the situation, and I do know that at some point I'll have to make the effort to switch to C# as my 1st choice. I also don't get why I have to end my code lines with semi-colons, when there are perfectly good CRLFs directly after?
