Man.. All of these words did proof you were wrong. > The difference with cargo or go or pip is that all of these are found in every linux distribution, while .net is in none. This statement is false. It is also in arch. If it is not in debian and ubuntu, that is their fault. (But it would not surprise me, any user will soon run into the fact that even for non-obscure software there are no up-to-date packages in the main repo. The default escape hatch is to add extra repo sources, but my advice is to skip those distro's altogether anyways, unless you have very specific needs.) But then again, if you think package management is a serious topic and then dismiss .net for the python mess, come on. > the APIs are windows oriented? The design of this particular API might be off. I guess this dates from the pivot to cross-platform. Usually, tuning for .net performance is better on Linux. I think nobody in MS believes in Windows as a platform really, it is a sinking ship.
