What's the status of netstandard2.0 now? I realize some people are still stuck on Framework, but what's the percentage of that? As a lib developer, should I be putting in the effort to maintain that compatibility? I think at this point I'd much prefer to just move on to supporting newer versions.
But I don't know who they are. I have ~10M downloads on Nuget, and they're all anonymous. That leaves knowing stats on the overall ecosystem as the only way to make any kind of practical assessment.
