Why WCF? Am I wrong for hating it so much?
In the later versions you could avoid almost all the XML mess by configuring all of the settings in code. The experience is pretty close to gRPC imo, one plus point is you don't need to learn how to write proto classes. Though you could use protobuf-net for a similar experience. I'm kinda hopeful with CoreWCF, they aim to support more transports (including event gRPC) in the future along with queues other than MSMQ and slowly evolve from being too SOAP specific. There's a lot of potential still for WCF to be a transport agnostic framework that ecompass a lot of transports.
- OpenAPI vs SOAP and WSDL

Bring WCF apps to the latest .NET with CoreWCF and Upgrade Assistant
There's ongoing work on adding generic queue support. The first two concrete implementations should be MSMQ and RabbitMq from what I recall, though MSMQ will be windows only. But the nice thing about the work is it also opens up other types of message queues for WCF (e.g. Azure Service Bus, RabbitMq, Amazon SQS etc...).

Questions about OWIN and WCF from a high level.
The ongoing .net core port called CoreWcf plans to realize that goal as a future feature on it's roadmap. Where there's plans on adding new transports that didn't exist on .net framework wcf like Grpc, Azure Service bus, Amazon SQS, rabbitmq etc...

Announcing .NET 6 — The Fastest .NET Yet
There's Core WCF at least if you have existing services as a migration path. We're waiting for it to have a stable release and check if it supports all the bindings we need so we can move some of our WCF services to .Net6+.

How did you guys get your first C# job?
Started programming by writing some apps for Windows Phone later UWP during university. A few years ago I started collaborating a lot on GitHub to some Microsoft projects, like the Windows Community Toolkit. There I created a lot of new APIs and libraries, like all the new animation APIs and pipeline brush APIs, etc. I then also proposed adding some general .NET APIs to it, and that's how the MVVM Toolkit was born, along with other libraries which are now moved to the .NET Community Toolkit. Fast forward until about late 2020, and they pinged me saying the new Microsoft Store (which hadn't been announced yet back then) was using several of those new APIs I had written, so we started collaborating more so that I could add more functionality they needed. After that shipped, at some point there was a new opening to which I applied, and here I am in the Microsoft Store team and also leading the .NET Community Toolkit 🙂

Why is there a lack of cool repos?

Does anyone here have a long background with Java before switching/using C#? What caused you to switch and what do you miss about Java that C# doesn't have?
For instance, recently Chaochao opened a PR for the Windows Community Toolkit to open source the whole custom animation helpers he developed for the Store, which are used to implement the morphing animations you see when scrolling in a product page. You can see a GIF and the whole code here and in the linked PR.

Where is the source for Microsoft.Toolkit.MVVM?
Specifically I am looking for AsyncRelayCommand.cs. All documentation points to CommunityToolkit repo but I can not find it there. Link to source repo from the Nuget package also points to CommunityToolkit. I am not looking for samples.

Improve C# code performance with Span<T>
That's interesting. It will need some documentation and to finish the renaming at some point, e.g. Span2D is in https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/WindowsCommunityToolkit but as you say doesn't require Windows.
