Personally, I don't see the value in building server/tooling software for Windows these days. The market share just isn't there, and it ends up requiring a lot of work and testing to maintain.

- lproven 3y agoIt's odd. I often hear this, yet I have been professionally supporting Windows in production since version 2.01 in 1988, including deploying NT 3.1, in prod, before any service packs, in 1993. It is the direct opposite of 36 years of extensive professional experience. Linux is pretty tough. It will run on anything, and can cope with a lot of changes and damage. 21st century Windows is the most fragile OS I've worked with since classic MacOS.
