  .NET? Ugh.

    Care to say more than that?

      Why would anyone choose .NET for anything non-Windows (or non-Microsoft)? Besides familiarity of course but that means jack shit.

        Why would anyone not choose one of the best platforms in 2025?

          With C#, VB.NET, and F#? Anyways, to each their own.

            Two of these are still ahead of the rest of the industry in their respective domains. And both are beautiful languages to write concise and performant code in.

              I prefer C, OCaml, Ada, Elixir, Go, Factor, Lua (LuaJIT), etc.

                  It was not a proper critique (as you noted) of .NET. I dislike anything JVM, too, including Clojure, while I do like Common Lisp. If you give me an example use case, I would be able to tell you what I would use, however.
