    C# is such a crappy language.

    You can’t even do a=b if they are classes, and you’re forced down the chosen road all the time. It’s like java all over.

      And what would that equality entail? Reference equality? You have .Equals for that for every single class. Structural equality? You can write an operator for that (but yeah, there’s no structural equality out of the box for classes, that I have to concede).

      Hell, in newer C# (~3-4 versions back, I don’t recall off the top of my head) you have records, which actually do support that out of the box, with a lot more concise syntax to boot.

      As fir that being Java all over again: it started off as a Java clone, and later on moved in its own direction. It has similar-ish syntax, but that’s the extent of it.

        It’s a single =

        a = 5;

        b = c;

        And hell, “use .Equal” is exactly what it is all about, have you heard of == ?

        Back in the day all the big languages were hard to learn and had lots of quirks, but somehow C/C++ moved on and became quite simple and elegant (you can write the worst trash with it ofc. but that’s like saying you shouldn’t cook because you might burn your chicken). C# not so much.
