I get why people hate Microsoft and why people would "prefer" not to pay licensing fees for their applications. But do haters realize that you can run .NET on a fully free/OSS stack, in the cloud, AWS, Linux, the works? That question is not rhetorical. Do haters realize that?
I wrote an article about the good aspects of .NET, but it really only attracted other .NET developers. That's mostly my fault because my network is mostly .NET.
Here's the article I wrote. I'd be curious to hear if it helps the argument for pro-.NET (or at least not anti-.NET): http://steppingback.com/dotnet-strong-were-not-who-you-think-we-are/
I do work in .NET, Node, and most recently I started to dabble in Ruby. I'm not against any of those other languages, so I don't want to hear how awesome they are. I want to focus on why people thing .NET is inferior and anyone who uses .NET is ultimately inferior, too.
Comment below on why .NET has such a bad rap. No trolls, please. I'd like to have a real conversation about it.
