It's hard to see how C# will ever find wide usage outside of the MS ecosystem. It's so intrinsically tried to MS.

.Net 6 runs on Linux with, for example, PostgreSQL so how is that tied to M$?

MS still controls it in practice, and MS is still playing a complicated game with Linux, with goals that have nothing to do with "MS <3 Linux".

Yes, the scandalous SCO lawsuit and subsequent Linux patent racket make it impossible to believe M$'s Linux fud.

By ownership? MS has chosen to let .NET run on platforms not owned by MS, but they are still controlling product direction.
