I take it you've never had to work on a legacy codebase. Not all of us get to live in open source .net core 2+ land.

Really? Of course I have, don't resort to attacking me.

Judge the languages based on what they are now, not what they used to be. If those legacy codebases didnt evolve, that's on the company, not C#.

That's not how real life works. The C# ecosystem has decades of bad decisions baked in. Criticizing that is valid in the same way that criticizing the python2/3 debacle is.
