I&#x27;ve been eagerly keeping a close eye on .Net Core. Congratulations to the teams that have been working on this! It&#x27;s long overdue and I can assure you many others are keenly interested in this.<p>For myself, mainly because as primarily a Python programmer I&#x27;ve been looking for where to move next with the 2&#x2F;3 split. I&#x27;ve migrated completely to PyPy4 (which is Python2.7) rather than port&#x2F;test to CPython3 in the last few years. It was worth the migration and testing that was involved.<p>I&#x27;m waiting to see if PyPy will announce they are the flag bearers for Python2. If so, I&#x27;ll most likely continue using it going forward.<p>On the other hand we use .Net and Python at work so while most people would not agree or find .Net Core to be a bit pointless, for me it means I can move my projects and small business to run on my underpowered VPS, utilizing the same well-supported tech stack that many enterprises use.<p>Keeping my head in C# is a good advantage as I&#x27;m also interested in Xamarin and Unity (both professionally and personally). Of course, I&#x27;m one who does not have any particular grudge against Microsoft. I do prefer POSIX based systems.
For my home business and hobby tech stack I&#x27;m currently looking at 1) PyPy4, 2) .NetCore 3) CPython3. While I&#x27;m currently running everything on PyPy4, there&#x27;s a smaller gap between 1 and 2, and a big liklihood of adoption gap between 2 and 3.
