That's the wrong bet to make, because those are the people that will end up using the Microsoft WSL.

From what I can tell, the problems with Canonical will sort themselves out when the market they've created for themselves is eaten by Microsoft's incorporation of Linux into Windows.

The only people left using 'pure' Linux/Unix will be those who care about quality software, FOSS, and privacy. I hope that day comes sooner than later.

Canonical is the #1 distributor of Linux on Windows. It seems to fill that niche perfectly.
