Let me tell you something interesting: .Net Core programs run much faster on Linux. Does that sound like something they would let happend if they wasn't serious about their Linux efforts? That said: all is not good. For years there seems to be a fight going on in the wheelhouse. One month it is: Microsoft, the reliable, reasonable vendor in a world full of Oracle and Google. Next month it is: let's increase the cost for this small company by $10000 just because we can. Next month: something admirable. Next month: try to push Edge using some sleazy tactic learned from Googles Chrome push combined with resetting the defaults. It must be frustrating for the guys who try so hard to drag the rest of Microsoft kicking and screaming into the future everytime some old guys gets up from the wheelchair and turn the weel all the way to the port side while the helmsman wasn't paying attention :-]

>Does that sound like something they would let happend if they wasn't serious about their Linux efforts? Hhhm I think the most remarkable parr is that it runs at all, really! .Net Core on Linux by itself shows plenty commitment. The performance of it? Considering NT was only developped by a single company, has to maintains a lot of stable/legacy driver APIs, and seems to have been on the backburner for a few years, as a Linux user I'd find it very humbling if our kernel still came out behind :) It's interesting to see where this is all converging. It'll be easier to run Linux tech on Windows, and all the MS legacy still runs. But at the same time maybe they're familiarising their loyal userbase with the outside ecosystem a little more than they should. If new Windows users are encouraged to learn Linux ways, at some point you're making it easier for people to transition
