Well, like most people who haven't used .NET, I have very strong opinions about it.
The first and main issue I take with it is how it's all capitalised. Second but not less, it's such a generic name. Am I gonna get websites in the .net domain or do I have to learn Google search beyond typing random junk, pressing enter, and hoping for a stackoverflow answer that works?
When searching for help I always use "dotnet" instead of ".NET" as a search term.
I tried something similar for SQL and kept getting Star Wars memes.
