@Moon Does anyone even use Java anymore outside of Minecraft and Android? It seems like it's dying off.
@Moon It doesn't surprise me that it's still used for internal software. It's still the preferred language at my college, but I hate it. C# is much better IMO and it's one of the few things Microsoft got right.
@wolf480pl @Moon Mono has been around since 2004 and .NET is pretty much open-source now. C# still seems to be frowned upon in the FOSS community because Microsoft can still fuck with the language whenever they want, but if you don't care about that and just want to make games it's a pretty good language for just that.
@wolf480pl @Moon ASP.NET and Entity Framework are both open source now. As for third-party stuff, Blazor and DotNetNuke are open-source web frameworks for .NET.
@xianc78 @Moon I'm not talking about the language itself, more about third party libraries. What are the top web frameworks for .NET? What are the top ORMs for .NET? Are they open-source?
