As a side note, I think LLM frenzy would be dead in few years, 10 years time frame at max. The rent seeking on these LLMs as of today would no more be a viable or as profitable business model as more inference circuitry gets out in the wild into laptops and phones, more models get released, tweaked by the community and such.
People thinking to downvote and dismiss this should see the history of commercial Unix and how that turned out to be today and how almost no workload (other than CAD, Graphics) runs on Windows or Unix including this very forum, I highly doubt is hosted on Windows or a commercial variant of Unix.
About a fifth to a quarter of public-facing Web servers are Windows Server. Most famously, Stack Overflow[1].
Most companies are writing software with software developed on Linux first and for Linux first (or Unix) and later ported to Windows as an after thought. I'm thinking Python, Ruby, NodeJS, Rust, Go, Java, PHP but not seeing as much of C#/ASP.NET which should at least be 20% of the market?
Only two explanations - either I am in a social bubble so don't have exposure or writing software for Windows is so much easy that it takes five times less engineering muscle.
you clearly are.... There are TONS of windows only software out there, and most INTERNAL systems that run companies, these internal LOB apps, often custom made for the companies, many many many of them (probally more than 50%) are windows server apps.
For example GE makes a Huge Industrial ecosystem of applications that runs a ton of factories, utilities, and other companies... Guess what all of that is windows based.
Many of the biggest ERP's run on MS SQL Server which until very recently was Windows Only, and most MS SQL Servers are still on windows server
To claim only 20% of all workloads are Windows shows an extreme bubble most likely in the realm of WEB BASED DEVELOPMENT, as highlighted by list of web technologies, php, node, etc..
