In fact, the default callback simply return true for all certificates (thus not validating the certificate at all; as documented).

Best way to create a websocket relay server?
Would it be better to write my own server using System.Net.WebSockets ? I've also looked into using websocket libraries like websocket-sharp

Recommended package for Interprocess communication?
I’m surprised no one mentioned web sockets. They’re extremely easy to get started with and you can have a full bi-directional communication in no time. I think there’s a native solution, but we’ve been using (WebSocketSharp)[https://github.com/sta/websocket-sharp] for a few years and it’s really simple to get started / gives good results for some heavy network communications as well.

MassTransit with MSMQ vs RabbitMQ
If it's the former you may want to take a look at something like the actor model akka.net with persistent actors (https://getakka.net/articles/persistence/architecture.html). No need of an external message broker or mass transit (which is a wrapper over different message brokers). You could use sqllite for persisting the actors state to recover in case of a restart.

For .NET 6+, is there value in using NHibernate with Sprint.net or should I stick with EF Core and the usual supporting libraries?
Spring and Hibernate are the goto libraries in Java land and I suspect that's the primary motivation for your colleague's recommendations. It's quite easy to bulldoze someone less experienced with your ideas so be careful of that. I'd avoid both. They aren't bad libraries at all but they have a 'legacy' feel and it will make your application less future proof. Would a distributed system be viable? If so then I'd recommend Akka, there'a .NET port of it that's well supported and maintained.

Using functional extensions in production C# code?
However, I've found that sometimes, they are a little -too- functional. I'm a bit more preferential to Akka.Net's implementation of Option and Try, if only because they have good 'escape hatches' where you interrogate them in a more procedural manner.
