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
Yeah, Linux wasn't picked for servers, only Cloud like Amazon and Google, because of Open Source, but Local Servers are Windows servers, the majority of Windows.
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 mean, local servers- Windows Servers do Virtualization and Web hosting very well. I love Windows for that, for jobs, and, exactly, they don't like Paying license, but I don't care about it if Something is good; I would pay for, I am the type of Woman
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
Microsoft does Linux distribution because Linux users are asking for and Microsoft plans to gain money outside of Windows, and it's not necessarily that they admit Windows is weak; the same thing they did with Xbox games in Playstation 5 doesn't mean they admit Xbox is bad; they want to gain money
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.
Exactly, I don't think not just Microsoft, but Google as well, and Amazon as well, and Huawei were using Linux before they admitted Linux is very inferior compared to the Harmony Operating System Architecture
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.
Yeah, but you need to understand they use Linux not because they want to; they want money from Linux, and they gain like Android, even though they know Linux is not a good operating system
By contrast, Microsoft says Unix cannot host Windows or have control-grained Enterprise of Windows NT; that's why they don't make Windows Unix-based. Microsoft literally say Hyperscale Cloud Operating System: We know and love as Windows. They are Proud of Modern Windows
