    The most widely used operating systems in the world are based on unix/linux. Android (the most used OS in the world), MacOS, iOS, ESXi (as well as most hypervisors that aren’t hyper-v) are all based on Linux/Unix. That’s not even mentioning routers, switches, load balancers, and other high performance networking equipment. Other critical internet infrastructure (like root DNS servers) are all based on Unix or Unix-derivitives.

    Just because it’s not a widely used desktop OS doesn’t mean that Linux/unix aren’t relevant.

    Not sure if you’re being serious or not, but I’ve personally had very little issue with gaming on Linux. To the Unix/Linux folks, windows 11 feels like a trash heap of bugs and blue screen crashes that suck.

    To be fair though: Desktop Linux isn’t for everyone. Making generalized statements about Linux is silly when you aren’t a Linux user. Feel free to keep doing it, though. And if this was bait: 10/10

    This 100%. I liked bash scripting when I was in college. Took some time to actually learn powershell, and it’s been amazing. Steep learning curve in the beginning, but it’s worth it

    Edit: I had also meant to mention the fact that powershell definitely feels a little similar to bash. I mean, not quite the same. Powershell is more object oriented, whereas bash is more text oriented. Powershell for structured data is nice.
