No worries. I think your not the only one. I wasn't clear, sorry.

Corporation? I'm not anti business, far from it. But I have an interest in economics as well as technology. We need effective markets. CUDA is an example of a market problem caused by a corporation's own language. It has screwed up competition.

So many American films and TV have the BBC as the token international news. So really not good to not know it. I think it's probably because its neutrality is seen as the wrong bias....

You don't know the BBC??

They should be standard protocols and you should be able to change server to competition. Be great if it was all open, but failing that, standards, competition and right to repair.

I think you mean "had".

As I said, I can see Windows .NET people using Linux for server runtime. Actural Linux natives aren't going to touch that stuff. There is no new Microsoft. I've been hearing new Microsoft for over 20 years. In that time they never stopped the patent trolling, corrupted the ISO process for OOXML, continued their anti competive practices, etc. They never stopped being a big tech monster. Just equally big new monsters came along so they went it to background to those not watching. They still need dealing with. They are the definition of the confusion of standards and monopolies.

I think it will remain a Windows dev thing. Even if they sometimes use Linux as a runtime. Linux devs will use Python or something else. PHP is legacy really now. Go is popular for apps started at a certain time, but Rust seams to be replacing it. Which is good as Go is as Google as C# is MS.

You got some stats? The Debian stats say no one is using it on the desktop or traditional server stuff. I can believe Windows C# Dev are porting their closed service to Linux to improve, well, everything.

They are saying very little in Linux world moved to .NET/C# : https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=mono

It's just not popular in Linux world despite MS attempts to make it so. It's a Windows people language.
