Oh, so it's not the users at all, it's that you have tools to manage Windows and didn't set up tools to manage anything else even though they exist; like a Linux admin complaining that Windows is unmanageable because ansible doesn't work well on it.


You're maliciously misunderstanding. The tools available to manage Windows are simply either much, much better, or much better value.

And everything just works out of the box with like... 3 lines of PowerShell.

You can replicate some of it with Ansible, sticky tape and a few spare weeks, but it's not the same at all.

I'm actually Linux admin, grew up with open source and spent my career serving pages and automating myself out of a job. I dislike Microsoft as much as the next guy, but for enterprise use they are _next fucking level_.
