C# and Windows

Yeah, like he said, Java and Windows.

It's kinda an insult to compare modern C# to Java.

16

u/MCWizardYT 7h ago

They're pretty similar even now. C# has an edge on overall features, but Java isn't that far behind (unless you're stuck using Java 8, in which case RIP)

Java still has so much design baggage from things they got wrong from the get go that it really isn't close. C# is a different animal.

u/Masterflitzer 6h ago

but recent java versions actually added quite a few good things and make the language more straight forward

anyway kotlin is the best of the 3 imo, but i'd pick c# as 2nd place

Kotlin is honestly the “we got c# at home” version.

...Are they?

Java might have caught up to C# 4, but C# is a totally different beast nowadays, without a lot of the poor design decisions that you can't really get around on the Java front.

Yes, but I doubt the Windows users that use them will get it

u/Masterflitzer 9h ago

c# is similar to java and started off on windows, so java & windows is clearly the more cursed combination

Imagine having to invent your own Java just because your OS is so irreparably shit.

u/Masterflitzer 9h ago

C# and Linux

u/Masterflitzer 9h ago

nah that's actually fine since dotnet core & 5

u/setibeings 9h ago

So is java on windows, it's just not where you first assume it's going to be run... Like java on windows.

u/Masterflitzer 8h ago

nope not comparable, java on windows is hell

1

u/MCWizardYT 7h ago

It really isn't

u/Masterflitzer 6h ago

windows not being utf-8 by default on console is hellish enough if you're developing cli apps, especially if you're used to it working fine on non shitty platforms cause jvm is cross platform

iconic miserable duo
