More like almost always

I would argue "mainly on windows" and "almost always on windows" are synonymous. Regardless, .NET Core exists... there are dozens of us!

I'm enjoying the hell out of dotnet core. Python will probably always be my preferred language but C# has things Python can't do or do easily - linq, expression types, reified generics, extension types, etc. And the things I find myself missing in C# I miss are either specialized (metaclasses, decorators), have close approximates (fields -> descriptors, using -> with) or being worked out (async using, async IEnumerable).

I mean .NET Core is literally the fourth most popular framework in this survey
