@Linux_Is_Best No surprise there really. Been a while since they manufactured this Tux. Microsoft's first priority is revenue as always. Even Windows doesn't mean a thing if it ever hurts rather than creates revenue.

Been using WSL for many years now. My employer requires Windows so I use it at work, and Ubuntu/macOS at home. With Windows Terminal and WSL it's actually not at all bad for administering Linux servers. WT was a HUGE improvement to ConEmu and PuTTY in my opinion.

@Linux_Is_Best Regarding Azure it was revealed already in 2015 that they use Linux for part of their intrastructure. I visited Microsoft for an Azure workshop in 2017, and everybody spoke warmly about Linux. It was a significant part of the training material. Azure Cloud Shell had just been introduced in the portal, and could be used to administer Azure by CLI. Turned out to be a virtual Linux machine.

(Privately I use AWS by the way.)
