No, it was not. What's called .NET now used to be .NET Core. And then there's .NET Framework which was commonly known as .NET.

Are you serious? Not only does the JDK have multiple GCs for different use cases (Serial, Parallel, G1, ZGC, Shenandoah), they have very refined tuning settings (https://wiki.openjdk.org/spaces/zgc/pages/34668579/Main#Main... / https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/25/gctuning/garbage-f...). What does .NET let you do with the GC? Set the hard limit? Maybe turn on/off concurrent collection? That's not tuning, that's triviality.
You just confirmed your ignorance about anything .NET related.
Coming from someone claiming:
You are just so much in language wars I am just definitely ending the conversation.
I keep telling you what's what and you do nothing but gaslight me by trying to turn my words on me.
Language wars are silly and pointless. Someone tells me he/she uses language xyz, I basically don't care, do whatever works for you ,but God forbid you cross a .NET proponent. In case you haven't noticed, this is a post about Java. You mention Java, and the first thing that happens is a bunch of .NET maniacs popping up out of nowhere, telling you how Java copied this feature or how C# had that feature for years. What is this?
