Feather HTTP would be a good place to start if you wanted to understand what this means for implementations.

So, when I saw in late December that Fowler had created a new project called FeatherHttp I was stoked. It appeared to me that this project was a manifestation of his thoughts around .NET bloat. I jumped on it and quickly started buzzing around the threads. I wanted to help write the documentation. I wanted to be a part of this effort. Also, here was a .NET open source project in the initial stages. I felt I could contribute. I was also very excited to work with David Fowler.

The tooling is not entirely open or freely available.

If you, for e.g., want to debug you have to use MS tooling.[0] You also can't use VSCodium because only the MS built/distributed version of VSCode contains the necessary proprietary binary blobs necessary to debug C# (which also means you're forced to using the aggressive telemetry and other data collection built into the non-open source distribution of VSCode).

They've also taken steps to lock down the LSP support for C#, which once again requires that you use a MS sanctioned code editor to write C#. [1]

I really enjoy writing C# and think dotnet is a great platform to develop for, but the barriers preventing me from building more projects on it is that I don't want to be forced to use VSCode or Visual Studio.

Microsoft does not adapt their new products to operating systems (https://github.com/dotnet/core/issues/7556) which have reached End-of-Support status. Therefore, the game's system requirements have changed:
