My company doesn’t even let the Linux software devs use Linux workstations because they don’t integrate well with Windows AD/DC. I live in a relatively small city where everyone still depends on Windows and all the other big player companies (like vmware). My company has recently started pushing the few open source solutions that we do have out and replacing them with Microsoft garbage, even though it raises costs, gives us in the IT more headache and is ultimately more hostile to privacy. I’m deeply disappointed, especially because I’ve been trying to push for solutions that aren’t MS trash. However, I have no power, so I have to do as I’m told.
