"what do scala programmers think about c#

I don’t think I’m entitled to speak for all Scala programmers, but I know some.
So, in general, C# is pretty nice. But it’s so ancient. First, it’s not community supported. You cannot expect somebody coming up with C#Z, or Cats#, or Spark# - Microsoft is an obstacle to doing anything good for the community, I guess. I may be wrong.
And the language, of course, it’s awkward, compared to Scala (and, more and more, compared to Java, too).
It would be nice to hear other opinions, so I’m reposting it on twitter.
