I'd love to use Rider on Linux or even Windows. Sadly the lack of .NET hot reload on Linux and Rider's issues with hot reload on Windows are what keep me on Visual Studio. (Rider's implementation of hot reload doesn't support assemblies loaded at runtime yet, which my application depends on).

It's sad that the time saved with Visual Studio's hot reload alone seems to outweigh the (massive) performance gains from using Rider, given that I have to restart VS from its memory leaks multiple times a day or it will slow to a crawl. Omnisharp isn't performant or reliable enough for daily use, either. The current state of .NET tooling leaves me unsatisfied.




I’m amazed hot reload works consistently enough for you to be able to use it.
