Really? In the modern .Net world (originally .Net Core) it's very common for devs to use Windows machines to write code whose CI pipelines and deployed environments are all Linux. I've seen a handful of issues with things like path separators and file system case sensitivity, but we're talking about 3 or 4 minor problems in 6-7 years that I've been using it.

Hey, some of us have moved to Macs by now :)

(also yes, people keep asking "what about linux" and think it's bad when you say there is literally nothing extra to consider in 95% of situations, sigh)

I'm actually going to switch to Mac as a pilot for our team at some point this year! I don't expect any issues, I already use Rider and have done plenty of .Net stuff on my personal machine which is a M3 MBP. Really IMO the only question marks will be around using Parallels when we need to occasionally work on a legacy .Net Framework app.
