Yes I think the better solution is to read your username. It's hard to argue with Linux and BSDs when it comes to servers.

I agree 100%. Google Cloud platform doesn't have Windows servers and the cloud providers are simply two small for Microsoft products.

Its hard to beat a Linux server as you can spin one up on prem or in the cloud quickly and it doesn't have a lot of overhead in most cases.
