    This isn’t because windows sucks, this is all the recoil from AI. MS invested over $13b in openai and holds about a quarter of the company.

    Windows doesn’t make enough money for Microsoft to seriously care about it, their baby now is Azure.

                Very well might be, but the end product is nothing like RHEL. I know they host more Linux than Windows on Azure.
