That is the exact opposite of my experience.

Outside of UI components which MSFT is getting to, they’ve worked very hard to make the transition as easy as possible.

If anything, the backwards compatibility has led to making some things worse, IMO, e.g. switching from the simple JSON based project file format they had to the XML based .csproj style one, which I’m pretty sure was done to be able to support .Net framework projects.

Classical .NET Framework CMS like Sitecore are now API first, and migrating away from .NET into a mixture of .NET, Java and JavaScript offerings.

Back in .NET Core 2.1 days, I had a two months project to port an application from .NET Framework into Java and deployed into Red-Hat Linux, because if a rewrite was required, then better away from Microsoft ecosystem, as this specific company already had enough from rewrites.

This is how well some customers have been taking the .NET Framework => Core migration.
