It’s only supported on Ubuntu, not Linux in general, and it still lacks. The corporate backing is missing, and IBM going away from the Server-side Swift deal doesn’t spread confidence. The whole ecosystem just isn’t there (yet?).
This rewrite isn’t only related to the current situation on Linux, but also to Swift’s current performance characteristics. Lack of full Linux support is just another hindrance, before you can consider Swift for this type of work at all.
