“Optimized for Windows 10”?!? Ugh. Just say “Microsoft Linux”.

Microsoft did have an official UNIX at one time, called Xenix. I write a lot about UNIX here: https://github.com/sirredbeard/Awesome-UNIX …. I understand where your initial concerns are coming from with this but I think I can explain.

I *don't* need you to explain the history of UNIX and Linux to me. The WSL name is a trademark violation - it confuses consumers who might think there is an actual Linux kernel somewhere. So you start from that premise of intentional confusion and go from there.

I was not attempting to confuse, I was simply trying to find some common ground. The use of the name Linux in WLinux has been authorized under license from the Linux Foundation. I got written legal approval from them before I used it. Microsoft is also a Linux Foundation member.

I'd be super interested to see a copy of that approval.

I am a long-time Linux user (20+ years) and open-source advocate. I understand your skepticism, I expected it, but we are on the same side. The commercial side has always existed symbiotically with the community side. WLinux is also discounted or free in developing countries.pic.twitter.com/cvtjtxNbBX

Call things 'Linux' that aren't a real Linux kernel is confusing and dilutes the work of the 1000s of people who have spent decades working on the Linux Kernel. Period. @linuxfoundation only cares about making $$$. They don't even have any community board members.

But.... WSL isn't Linux. MS uses WSL feeback to resolve issues MS offers WSL as production for servers MS makes proprietary changes to 'improve experience' With many WSL servers in use, uesrspace goes along MS gains an advantage over real Linux Less development for real Linux
