Can a C#/.NET program run on linux nowadays (genuine question)? I feel like this might be another reason why are developers completely dismissing .NET.

My last .NET experience was 10 years ago (so yeah maybe totally outdated) and I had to learn from scratch how to admin Windows Server, IIS & SQL Server, and learn Batch and PowerShell to automate all that stuff (installation, backups, etc). Took me a while and it had a lot of frustrating parts. Although C# was actually pretty nice to use 10 years ago (surely even better now).

Yes! .NET has been cross-platform since 2016 when it was rebranded as .NET Core (nowadays it's just .NET). Powershell is also cross-platform.
