No, and also never used it.

No; SQL92 if I can choose, since it is rather portable.

I took a while for me to like it but eventually I got to using it a lot and I haven't looked back.

- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Only for CRUD. For heavy lifting you need to go back to proper SQL. I do use Linq2objects a lot though.

Yep, it's awesome!

Do you mean something like

(from row in context.Person
where row.Name.Contains("foo")
select row).Take(10).ToList()

Do you (erroneously) "oppose it" to something like

context.Person.Where(x => x..Name.Contains("foo")).Take(10).ToList()

I guess I do then... but I usually use both syntax. Sometimes in the same query.

How often have you ported it?

Frack, no.

I've got both Windows and Kubuntu running here; not using the database-servers dailect of SQL makes it easy to switch databases.

You mean rolling your own and posting an article about it? :)

I used to... but not anymore.

[DJ van Wyk]

Daily, yes. You just have to be very careful with how you write the queries and constantly inspect what Linq-to-SQL projects into actual SQL. Sometimes Linq is so clever that it project terrible and slow queries but in most cases you can fix it by "rewording" your Linq queries. I believe Entity Framework has the same projection problem.

Entity Framework Core for me. I like how it does migrations, and if done right, it can be portable across multiple database engines.

[darktrick544]

Never have, I dont mind writing proper code

[Mario Luis]

Nope. MS did suggest a while ago that it should not be used production wise, rather use EF or some such.
