I never touched it myself, because it's 'Microsoft's version of Java', so double-plus-ungood.
But my 14yo son has been trying all the languages the last year or so (from lisps to lua to rust, to C, to icon, vale, to, etc, etc), and out of all of them he's most impressed by C#. According to him, it's just really well designed, all just fits together beautifully ... (his opinion on Rust - it's just not complete yet).
So I think C# probably is under-hyped, and I'll be taking a look myself. That's if I can even download it; I guess I'll have to wrestle through a microsoft account login, app store, or family permissions, or whatever other user hell they've concocted lately.

- earthling8118 3y agoWhen I was that age I had a high opinion of C# too. Over the years less so. Your statement relating to Microsoft sums it up well. It's overhyped.
