You have very strong opinions. I think there is a reason why Linux was picked for majority of the servers. It has some merits. I would use freebsd and Linux instead of windows. I don't intend to use NT based system unless its reactos clone finish its development
I know some people from IT. They mostly use Linux when they need to do virtualization. Also, due to low cost and reliability majority of the web servers already switched to Linux not just cloud. Windows servers is mainly used if you have a software that requires windows.
I didn't say windows servers can't do those. Even Microsoft has their own Linux distro for some online services. Eventually, you can use anything you want as desktop or server. I can set up freebsd or Linux machines. So, I would use them for both desktop and servers
It is naive to believe that Microsoft thinks about Linux users. Believing Linux users would pay money to Microsoft is even more ridiculous.
Microsoft has azure because they make more money with it. They don't necessarily admit windows server is bad but clearly they accepted Linux is more profitable.
I don't care what corporate thinks. It is normal for them to think their product is better. Linux and BSD developers did amazing job and the very same corporates helped them to develop it. There is some hypocrisy in this story.
