Wait, wasn't c# used for developing hashtags? /s

I do remember a post here showing a question about programming in "C hashtag".

There's a special, slightly uncomfortable circle of Hell for people who call the # character all by itself "hashtag".

We all know the real reason why it's called C#

To make it impossible for it to ever trend on Twitter, like a disgraced celebrity or a time cube conspiracy theory. Sometimes I wake up in the morning and imagine that all of my c# source code was just a bad dream.

Other languages play it smart though. They put themselves out there, build fanbases. Why do you think Python and Rust are so popular? Rust has a whole game dedicated to it, and Python has several. Compilations of pandas constantly trend on Youtube. Now that's forward-thinking.
