pervasive unchecked nullability

Framework management is hell, fat binaries inconvenient and not default

No option monad in the standard lib

Cross version dependencies simply don't work in some contexts

Compiler output only marginally better than working with c++

At least it doesn't have Gradle.

Addressed nowadays with the question mark and exclamation mark syntax, and programming without nullability is a pain

Nuget?

Compiler output only marginally better than working with c++

No one claims it's faster at runtime than good C++, it's just a lot easier to write decent code

I think they're referring to warning and error content. Compared to things like rust, deciphering error notifications from the c# compiler can sometimes feel like trying to figure out what a child with limited vocabulary is trying to tell you.

Even with decades of personal experience with it, they can be confusing and non-informative sometimes for me.

Yes this is right. C++ in this context is the boogeyman worst possible scenario. C# only being a little better just means it's not actual garbage
