It’s backwards lol. We want windows stuff to work in Linux so we have a stable system that can do everything we need, instead they gave us Linux on top the unstable pile of shit we all hate
Nah, that’s what actual Linux distributions are for. Linux runs on almost every server and powers nearly the entire internet while Windows is used to play fancy video games.
Linux runs on the majority of webservers. If you were to look at the usage breakdown of servers in general, Windows would probably be more common, by what I’d imagine would be a wide margin. I’ve never in my life seen an enterprise run anything internally besides Windows Server with Active Directory and a majority fleet of Windows workstations. There isn’t really a viable alternative.
Linux is definitely a go-to as a web server, load balancer, or some other appliance, but behind that a lot of the time are a bunch of Windows Servers as well.
Because it’s traditional. Businesses adopted computing in the 80s, and Linux wasn’t around then. Macs and Windows were. It would just be too costly (in time obviously, not cash) for huge businesses to switch at this point.

Its for development and testing not to play around.

I’m not sure is you are joking or serious.
It is a verifiable fact. The vast majority of web services run on Linux.
96.3% of the top million web servers run Linux.
I was doubting the fact that the only function of windows is to run video games. Literally every business in the world runs on windows PCs

In the 80s? No. There was Unix, and it was expensive
Google things before getting them wrong
I feel like that should be incredibly obvious, why would you want to run Windows on a web server outside of incredibly niche situations.
Development and testing, aka playing around
I think you perchance have a very poor understanding of OSes, their history, the purpose of Windows and “Linux”, and the purpose WSL serves.
Keeping developers on Windows. Otherwise, MS would have invested in Wine or created their own Windows thing on Linux.
