What's the deal with everyone using Java, Javascript, and Python instead despite how mature and advanced C# and ASP is now?

because everyone knows JavaScript and Python and everyone hates Microsoft

>>106340683 (OP)
C# is one of the few really good things Microsoft has ever created, although ASP.NET Core has been backsliding pretty hard for a few years and Blazor is utterly retarded. As for why more companies don't use C#, it's a White man's language and Indians are cheap.

My corpo uses c# for backend.
t's similar to Java and fills the same niche. Java is older so more legacy shit and more legacy shit means more jobs.

Not even Microsoft uses C#.

because using C# means upskilling your human resources

All of that garbage when all you need is HTML + DB

TypeScript is really good too

The first open-source first-party c# compiler came out in 2014. The first open source java release was January 1996

Developers don't like vendor lock in in their tools, who knew.

I work in the oil and gas industry and there was/is a heavy .NET presence, along with C++ on HPC.

As things move to the cloud I sense it being used less and less in preference for Python/TS/JS, but a lot of software we rely on (Petrel, etc.) are extended via .NET 4 plugins so I do not see that changing any time soon.

Can it scale to million users globally?

Java is open Sores, Java was open sores before C#, C# and .NET ecosystem is controlled by Microsoft

C# and .Net is pretty bad.

The only good thing about it is that almost every version of windows comes with a csc compiler.

I remember when this chick to over the .Net runtime at microsoft (written in C#) and it was such a mess, she had to find the old owners of some of the code to figure out why it was so fucked up.
I had to look at some of myself to do some crazy integrations (you’re not really an expert on .Net unless you have to examine the runtime constantly)

Oh, there is one other thing about C# that I liked:
You can practically write straight C and it will compile it, with the added bonus that it will actually be fast after ngen.

> not even ms uses C#

Coming from a C/C++ background, VB was almost always the better choice.
I heard MS put a moratorium on improving VB because it was so ahead of C#

Python is a basic derivative as well, but I’d much rather look at VB than anything else when I’m tired.

There’s also so something satisfying about using something connected to microsoft’s first product however unrecognizable the company has become.

Holy fuck looking at that framework bloat makes me want to an hero.

Also, as other anons have said C# requires slightly higher intellect to navigate and work with.

SAAAR

But basically, a bunch of nocoders

I built it, fuck off. Got a 5090, 128 gb of ram, and the best damn cpu ever.
