Both counts are fundamentally flawed for various reasons. I did, though, get a chuckle out of Microsoft's slide that showed more Linux instances than Windows ones on Azure: https://build5nines.com/linux-is-most-used-os-in-microsoft-azure-over-50-percent-fo-vm-cores/ https://build5nines.com/linux-is-most-used-os-in-microsoft-a...
