I never thought about it before but I use upstream and downstream without much though. For my personal devices and containers I use Fedora but when it comes to servers and VMs I use Debian for its stable nature.
I also run Linux mint in my homelab with pcie pass though so it functions like a normal desktop.
It would be weirder to like Linux and Windows, but hey someone had to write samba 😹
Only reason why that is weird to me, is just how much better Linux is. I’m too old to give a shit about a fanboy mentality. Linux used to be something you suffered through in order to get a tradeoff only available to power users. Now, my 90 year old grandmother has an easier time with Linux. It’s more consistent, and doesn’t break stuff nearly as often.
A more controversial take, is that I feel the same about MacOS. It was a lot of work in order to reduce how often it is annoying.
Samba is much easier to deal with than NFS. I would use it in a all Linux environment honestly.
I don’t get it
He gives you the look like “really”.
I tend to agree - I have no love lost for Microsoft but I’m also willing to admit when they’ve got some good tech.
