You can thank the hackers for bloating our stuff with security patches (among others)!

And by that you mean spyware, trackers, and ad platforms baked into the apps?

Nah its mostly nuget packages. And everything has more dependencies now, including all the dependencies 😅

nuget packages? is that what we can node_modules these days?

Nuget is dotnet's package manager

C# is usually used server-side. How would nuget bloat affect client-side applications that users use?

I meant node packages 😅. C# can be used in front end too though, but probably quite rarely used 😅
