How can anyone argue with this that MS couldn't care less about Linux's market share ?
With these changes, MS "accidentally" makes running non-MS OSes harder, and this includes both Android and desktop Linux, OSes for which they have as per the above shown an interest in capturing their market share. "Accidentally", the fact they become harder to run natively also makes their new virtualization features more attractive for users.
The "accidentally" part is what I don't believe.
It's definitely not what I'm arguing. Please stop making stuff up. This is where I will end our conversation. Have a good day.
> then it must be malice from Microsoft and the PC OEMs to restrict user freedom and destroy Linux's 2,43% PC market share.
I can only parse it in two ways:
* Sarcastic version: Linux's 2,43% market share is ridiculously small and therefore it is ridiculous to consider that Microsoft must be trying to destroy that market share.
* Non-sarcastic parsing: Microsoft is malicious and actively trying to destroy Linux's 2,43% PC market share.
Mate, you're contradicting yourself here more than you are contradicting me. WSL and Linux as a main desktop OS are two completely different things, and nobody is downplaying Linux's desktop market share, which is <3% no matter how you try to spin it, those are the statistics.
