netcoredbg VS announcements

Open source. OP is referencing a decision Microsoft made last year to include some closed-source components, in particular the debugger from Visual Studio, in the default C# extension for Visual Studio Code. There is a Samsung-provided open source debugger available if you absolutely require it, but the closed source stuff doesn't have any usage restrictions afaik.

idk what SOS is, but here is netcoredbg, and it works decently (I use it myself)

If you want to debug C# from Emacs, it’s the only choice AFAIK.

Or use CLi debugger on Linux server itself, I haven't used this one. https://github.com/Samsung/netcoredbg.

There is also this debugger developed by Samsung: https://github.com/Samsung/netcoredbg

I don't think that works. That would alert you about the security alerts on the Security tab of the dotnet/announcements repo, which are empty, not about issues that contain information about .Net security issues.

Yeah, it's a fun meme, but there have been a few nasty RCE vulnerabilities patched on .NET Core in the last couple years. Like this one: https://github.com/dotnet/announcements/issues/178

If you started receiving errors when pulling old versions of dotnet docker images (like the .NET 2.1), it's because Microsoft deleted them from Docker Hub on August 21st, 2021. That date is not a coincidence, the .NET Core 2.1 reached end of support in the same date. For more details take a look at the official dotnet announcement or also the dotnet blog. In my case, the error bellow was thrown in the stdout when pulling the microsoft/dotnet:2.2-aspnetcore-runtime image:

I'm not entirely sure what that means. We're done porting .NET Framework APIs to .NET Core / .NET 5. .NET Framework is what it is now, and .NET is moving forward with .NET 6+. If it is worth porting your code to .NET 6, it is. If not, then it isn't. Both can be good choices. .NET Core on Linux, however, is absolutely not preview.
