    Why RedHat? I thought it’s a bad version of Linux and generally disliked (similar to Broadcom and ESXi).
    Why not prefer something based on Debian. As it’s being regarded as very stable I don’t feel like it would interfere with the employees daily job as they don’t need a cutting edge distro like arch.

      So, I love Debian, and it’s an excellent distro.

      But personally something like suse makes more sense, it’s more user friendly and is so German it’s painful.

      Linux isn’t very good for the casual person at this time, due to conflicting, dated, or missing documentation. If people are to be encouraged to adopt Linux, it should be toward distributions that have official technical support.

          It’s sufficiently documented.
          It’s just spread across a fuck load of different pages (learn vs. msdn vs. support vs forum).
          And the articles are so unnecessary distributed across those pages. And so much articles are missing links to related topics that it’s comically bad.

          At least the powershell has a partly sound documentation. But very hit or miss.

        Oh, let’s all use FreeBSD then. Please? Please?
