Is c# mainly just used in this engine?

[-] GigglyBobble@kbin.social 87 points 1 year ago

It's probably a tiny fraction of the C#/dotnet ecosystem. But hobbyist meme creators mostly care about games, I guess.

[-] onizuka89@programming.dev 53 points 1 year ago

No, as other's have pointed out it's not. There are plenty of other areas to use it, even in other game engines. OP is just trying to make it seem funny by making the exaggerated narrative that it's the only use case for C#. If Boo was still around in Unity this joke would been accurate with that, don't think that was used anywhere else

It is also the language of DotNet framework so hardly.

[-] HiddenLayer5@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 year ago

I mean Windows is also undergoing enshitification it could still be true?

[-] gnutrino@programming.dev 16 points 1 year ago

Dotnet has been cross platform for a while now (so long it's not even called dotnet core anymore)

[-] Lmaydev@programming.dev 10 points 1 year ago

It's been cross platform and open source for like 10 years now.

[-] GigglyBobble@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

While true, businesses have it even harder to migrate to Linux (what else is there when talking enshittification?) than private users. Windows and dotnet won't go anywhere anytime soon.

Distributed deployment of DotNet solutions is a bit more attractive on linux though

[-] locuester@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

On their desktops, sure. But most apps are web based and back end apps are all services - running on Linux. I worked at a fortune 100 financial firm a couple years back. Hundreds of .NET apps, all running in Linux containers on Amazon ECS clusters or Lambdas.

[-] amio@kbin.social 46 points 1 year ago

No, C# is a general purpose language that Unity has a botched, outdated version of.

[-] PixxlMan@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Not at all. Unity's use of C# is pretty unconventional even. Not representative at all.

[-] Whirlybird@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago

Absolutely not. It’s used everywhere on the web and other places.
