I use Environment.NewLine, my colleagues use vbCrLf.
When I’m doing a code review for them I want something that I can point to to say “use Environment.NewLine instead of vbCrLf”
Or, am I just peeing in the wind, and it doesn’t really matter ?

Environment.NewLine is more portable, making to code easier to be read by someone coding in C#. Technically vbCrLf is a constant, where NewLine is not. This is because on a different OS, NewLine may not return CR/LF. On Unix it would just be LF.
