.NET Framework is part of Windows. That means it is very stable and supported for a very long time. But it is also not possible to evolve it further. That is why the .NET team forked it to make .NET Core, which is cross platform and installs versions side by side. This is what evolved into .NET, most recently .NET 8.

That means "stable" as in "it is not going to change".

But from a developer perspective, binding redirects, brrrrrr.... Also, source-level framework debugging tends to break every so often. It is obvious their focus is on the new .NET.
