the heads of companies that come to the realization that they are sharing company secrets with MS will make things change over time.
its a 300 employee robotics company; that is significant not because it is 300 but it shows that the brightest minds know linux is a better solution. Linux market penetration went from 3.1 to 4.7% in the past 12 months, 150% increase.
Ok, but working in healthcare, business, and with military contractors, I can tell you that they don't give a shit about that because they're more worried about being financially decimated from ransomware attacks and the class-action lawsuits that follows them. Some shady alternative software with vulnerabilities is never going to get approved by system security teams. There's no one that's going to watch some YouTube video and say "well I guess I just have to throw all of this shit away that's been established for decades". They'll modify the OS image to remove the goyslop spyware instead, which is what they've been doing for over 10 years now.
In July 2001,[26] the White House started switching whitehouse.gov to an operating system based on Red Hat Linux and using the Apache HTTP Server.[27] The installation was completed in February 2009.[28][29] In October 2009, the White House servers adopted Drupal, an open-source content management system software distribution.[30][31]
In April 2006, the US Federal Aviation Administration announced that it had completed a migration to Red Hat Enterprise Linux in one third of the scheduled time and about US$15 million under budget. The switch saved a further US$15 million in datacenter operating costs.[32][33]
By 2007, the United States Department of Defense uses Linux - "the U.S. Army is the single largest installed base for Red Hat Linux"[34] and the US Navy nuclear submarine fleet runs on Linux,[35] including their sonar systems.[36]
By 2008, the US National Nuclear Security Administration operates the world's tenth fastest supercomputer, the IBM Roadrunner, which uses Red Hat Enterprise Linux along with Fedora as its operating systems.[37]
In June 2012, the US Navy signed a US$27,883,883 contract with Raytheon to install Linux ground control software for its fleet of vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) Northrop Grumman MQ-8 Fire Scout drones. The contract involves Naval Air Station Patuxent River, Maryland, which has already spent US$5,175,075 in preparation for the Linux systems.[38]
