I use Ubuntu on Azure constantly and have been super happy with it, but I thought it was hilarious to throw out systemd as a feature. I have no issues with it, but I understand it to be stupidly divisive in the Linux community.

Doubt they can extinguish this one

They dont care any more. Money is not in OS's, its in running workloads.

[@GuruChaz]

Linux is way less expensive than Microsoft anything. What's the point of putting a free OS onto a pay service? It doesn't make much sense and is a waste of money.

[@guybarrette]

What's the point of putting a free OS onto a paid laptop or desktop? The laptop/desktop should also be free. 🤔 🤷‍♂

[@GuruChaz]

@@guybarrette Sure, if you perpetually pay for your laptop by the month.
