Rider is your option there, it's better than Visual Studio (I used to work on VS).
How is it so different than Visual Studio that you think it is "better"?
performance!

#52For us, every .NET upgrade since .NET 5 has gone surprisingly smoothly and reduced CPU/RAM usage by 10–15%. We were even able to downgrade our cloud servers to smaller instances, literally. I wish .NET was more popular among startups, if only C# could get rid of the "enterpisey" stigma.
For what it's worth, the startup I currently work for is built entirely in C# and .NET, as was my previous employer. Both startups are based in the Dallas, TX area. Across both companies, applications were hosted on Azure and AWS using a mix of PaaS services and virtual machines running Windows and Linux. We've consistently found this stack to enable strong productivity and high-velocity release cadences.

Aah that explains it.
For some reason, .NET is extremely popular outside of major tech hubs (notably in Europe), where you're much more likely to work for (without loss of generality) Ikea than for Google.

There's that, but there's also the developer experience and functionality for people to run it on Mac and Linux. We have a small C# service that we run locally via Docker (which I think is usually the optimal setup anyways) and develop with VSCode. Since it's small, it has worked well. Would it work well if that was ou…

Yep.
VSCode gets you 90% there.
But IMO Rider gets you over 100%.

Startups typically have the tech stack that the one man army tech co-founder set up on no budget. Apparently then .NET isn’t too popular for that!

Can only confirm that. Such a smooth platform overall for web and API development. We use it with several 100 devs on it and the choice never failed us, neither in technology or hiring. And it is not that we have .NET gurus or anything.

You can easily use the same types and libraries in your backend and frontend with TypeScript. It’s not at easy with dotnet.
While suffering the performance loss of V8 versus CLR, JVM or any compiled language. One of the reasons I am back to writing more C++ code is C++ addons for node.js, as several SaaS products now only care about Next.js as extension SDK.

The number of startups for whom that performance differential matters more than developer output is tiny.

#60That's a lot of goodies in a new release! It seems it is outpacing the JVM's development...
Apart from [the equivalent of] records, I see nothing big.
Except...
this '''let! a = fetchA() and! b = fetchB()''' really puzzles me. Does C# have a high-level syntax for concurrency timing? [something that Java is strongly lacking, and that Typescript did solve with Promise.all(), which is an ugly syntax, from my perspective]
Any elaboration on this is very welcome.
