gollark: > 4. XAML - the incredibly messy UI technologyPerhaps, but this is not a *language* thing.
gollark: > 3. Garbage collector and memory leak detection tools?Again, not sure if anyone actually runs into this sort of issue in practice.
gollark: > 1. Performance penalties.> [some rambling about C++].NET is generally pretty much *fast enough*. If your application somehow hits performance bottlenecks, rewrite the slow bits in native code, don't just immediately take a development speed hit.> 2. Need to interoperate with C++ / Native (Windows) API’sI don't know how often you actually need to bind to a native API not wrapped by .NET or a third-party library, but you can do it, it's just annoying - but probably less than using C++ for everything!
gollark: This is outrageous pro-C++ anti-C# propaganda.
gollark: I have dreams occasionally, but they're stupid.
