Yea in my experience Base classes has been horrendous. Because ppl walk all over Liskov substitution principle. First, they have an inheritance in 20 levels and somewhere in that chain they simply don't implement all methods, they become empty or have NotImplementedException as only code line.. This is way worse than fat interfaces imo.. We just need to keep fighting this in code reviews in my opinion, don't just mindlessly extract interfaces but defend why it's needed. Or if base classes is your go to then cap the limit of 2 levels of inheritance before it spirals out of control.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
