.Net has been chugging along quite nicely for decades now.

    Last place I worked at that abused used .Net was serving an angular web app to interface with a c++ BE using soap.

    Now that sounds sane, until they made their own C++ to CSS transpiler to be able define the ui in back end code. Like angular written in c++ translated through .Net.

    Through no fault of .Net I just can't get past those flashbacks.

    To be fair that's only like top 5 most fucked up code I saw there.

    As backend code, yes. As a web (web, not api. As an api platform they're great) platform... No.
    Asp.net and mvc were imo a disaster, silverlight was... Oof.
    Then there is maui which could have done it using blazor but just... Didnt.
    ... And then there is blazor itself. Though blazor is imo the best of all the web platforms they had, and i like it, it still has very rough edges and is not gonna replace javascript any time soon.
    Hell, microsoft cant even decently support their own web ui platform ( fluentui ) because their backbone ( webcomponents ) is completely broke ( or did v3 FINALLY release? ). There are other blazor frameworks but they all seem to not take full advantage of blazor and its disgusting.

    What about modern ASP.NET? It feels pretty good these days honestly. I even really like the newer minimal API features

    As i said, the api stuff of asp.net is very nice and straight to the point. The only bad thing ive got to note there is the openapi spec implementation they introduced in .net 10 is just terrible but itll improve quickly, its just early in its implementation ( like how system.text.json was )
