I get it.
There are quite a few areas on the linux desktop that show obvious signs of too many choices and loose integration making it an unpolished experience.
Outside of niches like online forums, people seem to think GUIs and marketing are what make something professional.
In reality outside of individual use you really want to avoid GUIs in configuration so that you can be consistent. You shouldnt have to dig down into menus and click through lots of screens to do comparisons or set something up. Thats really where Microsoft’s ecosystem is weakest right now. WinRM and powershell remoting lack polish in the same way wifi or bluetooth management in the linux desktop does
You cant fully setup winrm with gpo, for example listener addresses get bound the first time its enabled with gpo and then its just stuck at that. If the system has it’s ip changed you have to disable the gpo to make any changes and when you get it fixed it reverts when the policy is applied again
Microsoft only seems to care about how things will be managed in their cloud now and all products for managing things locally are showing some rot. Sccm -> mecm -> mem is terrible, theyve even ending all training for tools for on premises management. All they do is azure training and certs now.
