First of all: THANK YOU for caring about this. .NET was dying during the first 3/4 of the 2010s and was just about gaining momentum to get out of its sorry state. A sorry state Visual Studio IS A PART OF THE REASON FOR.

No.
It gives less of a reason to adopt .NET.
If you don't want .NET to die (I like it, but honestly am not sure if it's really worth fighting for anymore considering it includes rewarding this god damn company), this is a hugely important moment. Microsoft needs to (re-?!?!)learn that they can't push their shitty products down peoples' throats if they want to keep their oh-so-nice ecosystem.
If things went more my way Visual Studio would immediately be killed off, Microsoft's veto power removed, .NET GPL licensed and MAUI extended to support Linux. Might be a pretty attractive platform, then.
