Definitely your prerogative, and I understand the consternation – same with OSX and FoundationDB (open source, goodbye, technology snagged), Google with Motorola Mobility, etc. With that said, the overall base cannot be ignored in and of itself. It is too early to note that .NET will become ubiquitous, but to scream how will never happen and how everyone hates [y] because of personal anxiety isn’t really logical and is merely hyperbole. I greatly enjoy using .NET and the CLR, I enjoy the OSX products (which I use at home) the Windows products which I use at the office, and the linux products that I deploy my containers into and on top of. Every problem is not a nail and a good solution isn’t avoided merely because I dislike the company that made it. Otherwise I’d have a hard time buying my food.
