For us, every .NET upgrade since .NET 5 has gone surprisingly smoothly and reduced CPU/RAM usage by 10–15%.

We were even able to downgrade our cloud servers to smaller instances, literally.

I wish .NET was more popular among startups, if only C# could get rid of the "enterpisey" stigma.

I tried .NET and liked C# as a language. But even though the language and runtime are now open source, it seemed like a lot of the recommended libraries were still commercially licensed, which was an immediate nope from me. I've never encountered that in any other ecosystem.

Silly question. If you want the C# experience but more community/OSS driven… why not Java?

I haven't kept aware of changes to Java in the last decade, but the things I didn't like about it then were:

1. The overall architecture (with the JVM) made it slower than the equivalent C# code.

2. C# really started embracing modern language features at a time when Java was kind of languishing (lambda functions, async patterns). Java seems like it's been in perpetual catch-up since then.

(Not OP, disclaimer, I work for Microsoft and this is only my opinion).
