And what would that equality entail? Reference equality? You have .Equals for that for every single class. Structural equality? You can write an operator for that (but yeah, there’s no structural equality out of the box for classes, that I have to concede).

Hell, in newer C# (~3-4 versions back, I don’t recall off the top of my head) you have records, which actually do support that out of the box, with a lot more concise syntax to boot.

As fir that being Java all over again: it started off as a Java clone, and later on moved in its own direction. It has similar-ish syntax, but that’s the extent of it.

There is an old anecdote about this kind of situation; Postman (P), Recipient ®:

R: what are you doing? P: I left a notice that I tried delivering a package and you weren’t home. R: But I clearly was! P: <shrugs> R: <bashes postman’s face in> P: WTF, MAN!? R: It wasn’t me, I wasn’t home.

Some of recommendations I did not already see, that are not-that-well-known; all of these are various flavors of melodic death metal:

Parasite Inc. - Once and for All

Avatar - Bloody Angel

The Agonist - Panophobia (unfortunately, the band is now defunct)

Seconding this. B&O know their stuff when it comes to sound (though I’d avoid TWS due to having bad experience with them myself); currently rocking HX, seem to work fine
