The original thread is on the devil’s website and I don’t want to direct traffic to it, so here’s a link to the tweet instead:

To be fair .NET is open source only recently and Avalonia UI is only catching up. More and more people will discover it eventually.

And Microsoft behaviour is also to be blamed. What is a free and full fledged IDE for .NET? VSCode comes close but is no match to VS.

And web bros will notice once Blazor hits on. It will though, right?

I also feel like it was yesterday but .NET Core was announced in 2014.

True! But being open source and being useful enough are two different things.
