    There are many fans of linux at microsoft. The subsystem is a testament to their push towards more interoperability. Not perfect but a start.

        Honestly, I doubt it at this point. There’s far too much reliance on Linux for first party PaaS services in Azure. They even let employees Intune join Linux machines, though I understand distribution choice is very limited.

          Azure still uses windows as the desktop though. They want desktop users because that’s where the data comes from

            What do you mean by that? Azure is, at it’s heart, a virtualization platform with a large number of services built upon it. Are you talking about the AVD service?
