Not just older, You need to be straight up ancient for mono runtime. I 
had to switch a server to linux 7 years ago, due to us missing dotnet 
core support.

It seems that it's a seperate runtime from dotnet core. And mono having 
limited support for ASP.NET seems like a bad thing. dotnet core it the 
default runtime and OSS. My vote would be on the dotnet runtime and not 
mono. At my current Job all dotnet apps use dotnet core. Mono is not 
used at all for a long time.
