Poor Visual J# (literal Microsoft Java) isn’t even in the picture
Sun killed it fast enough so almost nobody remembers.
I’d argue we aborted before it could be born into mainstream
I’ve actually found C# quite pleasant to develop with, so long as I didn’t have to worry about targeting non-Windows platforms.
It’s fully cross platform with .NET Core and later.
What does fully cross platform mean? It sounds very vague and a lot like an exaggeration.
The standard .NET C# compiler and CLI run on and build for Windows, MacOS, and Linux. You can run your ASP.NET webapps in a Linux docker container, or write console apps and run them on Linux, it doesn’t matter anymore. As a .NET dev I have literally no reason to ever touch Windows, unless I’m touching legacy code from before .NET Core or building a Windows-exclusive app using a Windows app framework.
Yea this was a crosspost and also just a meme, but C# is my fav
And really cross-platform has come a LONG way…just as long as you don’t need UI on Linux lolol
