This is such a huge W for linux. It legitimizes linux as a real competitor in so many eyes.
That's because it is a legitimate competitor. It's the freedom OS, and only way for the world to escape Americas big tech fascism.
Yeah I know I've been using it for gaming for years. But when I say linux is good people might brush it off because oh you would say that as a linux user. But im highlighting that Microsoft saying this legitimizes Linux in a completely different way. It legitimizes it for all the people that see Windows as the best OS the people outside the linux bubble.
There is no greater force in the world than how glass half full Linux users can be, makes me so proud.
Then they fight you.
Bring it on
