      Real answer: this is talking about computers with windows 11 installed that also run Ubuntu through a service called WSL, or Windows Subsystem for Linux; basically you have a windows 11 pc that can do linux stuff too.

      A native Ubuntu machine would be installed directly to the hard drive and booted that way.

        I wouldn’t call WSL service, Linux environment integrated into Windows is more accurate. With WSL 2, Linux actually runs using a lightweight virtual machine with a real Linux kernel, while still being tightly integrated with Windows. It’s a proper Ubuntu (or whatever you want really) installation that you can run a production server off of.

        Makes sense, thanks. Also seemingly an odd brag. Seems like putting out an article that you’re commonly the side piece.

          Yeah. I highly suspect its mostly people who need Ubuntu for job purposes and have security policies or just the C-suite refusing to follow the times

      Native Linux PCs speak in penguinese and celebrate their mesiah the great Torvaldius giver of kernels.
