pervasive unchecked nullability

Framework management is hell, fat binaries inconvenient and not default

No option monad in the standard lib

Cross version dependencies simply don't work in some contexts

Compiler output only marginally better than working with c++

At least it doesn't have Gradle.

[–] AdamBomb@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 4 months ago (6 children)

Null reference checking by the compiler is enabled by default in new C# projects.

C# doesn’t come with an option monad in its standard library, but its cooler sibling F# does.

You can also easily write your own option monad or use a tiny library that does.

[–] anus@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Good idea, then patch the whole standard library and dotmet framework and most popular libraries to use that tiny library

You don't need to use the same one. Just don't expose it publicly in libraries.

This is the stupidest thing I've read all day
