I’m a Linux sysadmin who had to deploy a few server 2022’s at work recently for a special circumstance. Was tasked with making a gold image and couldn’t find much to strip from the install out of box. Just print stuff I turned off I think. I have to say I am quite impressed with it half a year in, I never even have to reboot them. They are a breeze to admin. Don’t bash it till you try it.
0? Nobody is “team windows” it’s just a necessary thing that exists. Talk to windows SMEs, they aren’t even brand loyal. I administered Windows servers for years and I am quite indifferent to it.
There’s a team apple, team Linux, but no team windows I promise. Unless you are that one person that bashed their head against something in a very special way. Have you ever seen someone apply a windows decal to their car or water bottle for example?

I have tried it tbh. It’s not as bad as people make it out to be, I was just making a joke.
It’s just much more resource heavy than those headless Linux servers. Maybe windows server can be headless too, but I haven’t looked into it much
I wonder how many peeps blocked you before they reached line 3… :-)

Holy shit now I have to stick windows on my car!
