I was recently part of a conversation thread online, which reinforced the naming confusion that exists around the .NET (dotnet) ecosystem. I thought I’d summarize my responses to that thread, as it surely can be confusing to a newcomer, or even someone who blinked and missed a bit of time, as things change fast.
Yeah it was prompted by someone on Mastodon asking about it, and Rocky saw it. I saw the reply too, and thought it was still a little vague, then a few days later this blog post turns up :-)
BTW if anyone wants to follow him he’s Rocky Lhotka. He’s on Pixelfed too (and Bluesky), but not as much work stuff on his Pixelfed account.
