With all my love for .NET, why not continue Java with its new features when it fits to your developer base, existing products etc.

Give it one or two more years and Java is where C# is ... also aesthetically. As did JavaScript.



The feature that everyone is excited above - switch statement with pattern matching - has been available in C# for 6 years now.


The feature everyone is excited about is Virtual Threads. Something where .NET is still playing catch-up https://twitter.com/davidfowl/status/1532880744732758018.


C# doesn't have exhaustive pattern matching yet.
