The commenter was referring to Microsoft's GUI frameworks on offer in .NET and not .NET in general. Of course .NET is used everywhere at Microsoft. C# is one of the most popular languages in the world.

They were talking about Microsoft constantly re-inventing GUI frameworks and then abandoning them. For example, you bring up Teams, but Teams is actually an Electron app, which gets to the point of the commenter.
