     @kaia i didn't know they already use .net. Thought they wanted to do a rewrite in it and that was still in progress tho

     @kaia is the linux kernel not open source because it contains binary blobs?

     @kaia i'm actually not too familiar with how open .net is but i think most of the source code is available on github at least

     @snacks @kaia The implementation Windows uses is still proprietary. Mono (.Net and C#) is fully open-source, as is ASP.Net (Core). Both open-source implementations aren't in full feature parity with Windows though. (In an effort to keep Windows Server at least somewhat relevant).

     @phnt @kaia all newer versions of c# are continuations of .net core iirc

     @snacks @kaia It's complicated. The open implementation doesn't have any of the Windows-specific features I think (similar to PowerShell Core). It's not like they implemented them in Linux and macOS with the same API. Essentially it's cross-platform with an asterisk. Technically yes, but not really if you don't write the whole project as cross-platform from the start and actively try to keep it that way.
     
     With ASP, Wikipedia at least implies that it is fully open now.

     mono is c# for Linux, probably can use .net libs too
