Ask HN: Why aren't more startups using .NET?

1•mafiaa•11m ago
Wanted to learn/try something new with my next start-up venture and decided to use .NET for my backend and it has been amazing so far.

Very low learning curve, easy to separate functionality rather than relying on some mega AIO Next.js app, easy integration with cloud providers such as Azure, and it's already widely used in the industry (valuable experience to have).
