I was recently part of a conversation thread online, which reinforced the naming confusion that exists around the .NET (dotnet) ecosystem. I thought I’d summarize my responses to that thread, as it surely can be confusing to a newcomer, or even someone who blinked and missed a bit of time, as things change fast.

The glossary is also good.
I think omitting .net core is not the best decision.
Yeah that confused me a bit too, then I found he talked about it underneath the table
Also .net standard is the only way to target framework and .net and is used heavily.
