I have the opposite take, as a non-native programmer in the early 00s.
All the PostBack loops in ASP.Net and WYSIWYG editing in VS.Net 2003+ felt like they were trying to appease native programmers to a fault. VB.Net wasn't bad but it was frustrating how hard it was just to script something without boilerplate. Being limited to IIS was also bunk.
