> C# really seems to be firing on all cylinders right now I actually agree completely: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42898372 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42898372 I just don’t like seeing people make bold claims without supporting evidence… those tend to feel self-aggrandizing and/or like tribalism. It also felt like a bad faith argument, so I stopped responding to that other person when there was nothing positive I could say. If the evidence existed, then they should have provided evidence. I asked for evidence. I like C#, just as I like Go and Rust. But languages are tools, and I try to evaluate tools objectively. > I can say, however, that C# has been moving forward every release, and those benchmarks demonstrate that it is separating itself from the Java/Go tier I also agree. I have been following the development of C# for a very long time. I like what I have seen, especially since .NET Core. As I have mentioned in this thread already, C#’s performance is impressive. I just don’t accept a general claim that it’s as fast as Rust at this point, but not every application needs that much performance. I wish I could get some real world experience with C#, I just haven’t found any interesting tech jobs that use C#… and the job market right now doesn’t seem great, unfortunately.
