Re: continued Open Source Adoption
"still widely needing Windows via VDI to get any real work done."
I doubt that constitutes a big portion of the workload. I work for an organisation that has around a thousand users and a lot of tech. We get our real work done every day on Linux - both desktops and servers. Windows exists here but it's mainly for niche stuff like accounting software. A lot of that has a web interface anyway and the rest is done via RDP. As that's a pretty small portion of the workload it's fine. If anything I blame MS for many years of designing their platforms under the assumption that they are the only players in existence. Thankfully this attitude is starting bite them now, so we are seeing more sensible decisions like native SSH support on the horizon.
