    Some people purchase a phone based on looks, some for customization, others for specific apps, some it comes just down to what they can afford

    I can come up with strong reasons to use Window or MacOS as your primary desktop os. IOS or Android as your phone OS. Windows / Linux / BSD for a server or appliance OS.

    If someone thinks one size fits all THEY are the ones that should not be trusted in terms of tech insights.

        can’t think of on3 scenario that windows is the best option for a server.

        There are plenty of enterprise scenarios: eg an AD server for Windows clients, a DFS server, or servers to run certain Windows-only applications such as SCCM etc.

            BSD has a very narrow set of benefits over Linux based systems I could say the same for BSD which mostly amounts to network appliances / firewalls these days. I would say NAS but Even trueNAS is moving toward linux.
