dotnet run *.cs is my favorite new feature for scripting. It has basically replaced powershell for me. It's trivial to script powerful operations now.

I guess LinqPad will lose some users to this feature.

This isn't LinqPad's selling point. All that dotnet run *.cs has done is remove the need to have a project file for each "script" you write.

LinqPad maybe has this feature but it's selling point is as a scratch pad to experiment with working with data and general futzing around.

The .NET team said they're working on VS Code integration. LinqPad still has some unique features (mostly database related), but at least for me, VS Code + dotnet run will be sufficient for my needs. Worst case, I can just throw a breakpoint on my database IQueryable result.
