Specifically, do you worry that Microsoft is going to eventually do the Microsoft thing and horribly fuck it up for everyone? I’ve really grown to appreciate the language itself, but I’m wary of it getting too ingrained at work only to have the rug pulled out from under us when it’s become hard to back out.
Edit: not really “pulling the rug”, but, you know, doing the Microsoft classic.
I knew I remember something shady happening with .NET some years ago with
dotnet watch, but welp that was pretty recent. Here’s a blog post that collected a lot of happenings and strung em together in a single view. Fear-mongering? Perhaps, but that .NET incident left a really bad taste in my mouth that reminded me that MS hasn’t really changed.https://ghuntley.com/fracture/
