LMAO. Microsoft really made Windows Server and won’t even use that crap themselves.

They don’t want to deal with their licensing either 😂

Have you used WS? It is a beast and is totally different. It is also the only option for many organizations as Samba and Linux aren’t doable in some cases.

Still funny that there’s a Microsoft Linux distro. Didn’t think that would ever happen 20 years ago.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
  • No misinformation
  • No NSFW content
  • No hate speech, bigotry, etc
