Welcome back Server schizo. Good to see you recovered from your self-inflicted gunshot wounds.
Now do it properly this time.

Yes, Windows SKUs (editions) can be referred to as distros because they're very similar.

Why would i use Windows instead of Ubuntu for servers?

why would I use 2012 when 2022 is already out?

lol, I remember setting up Server 2k3 as a workstation back in the day. But this is faggotry. Just use IoT Enterprise LTSC.

>as your desktop OS
Why can't Shitbuntu lusers read?

>for servers
Reread.

This. Every major release, MS ratchet up the configuration annoyances required to make Windows Server work like its desktop counterparts.
It was basically zero until 2k3.
Then 2k3 wanted you to turn a huge pile of services on and reconfigure the video driver.
Then 2k8 [R2] required registry-level changes and importing files from a real Vista/7 install to make things like Bluetooth work.
I haven't bothered trying it out even in a VM for lulz since.

I used server 2022 for a few days, I had to install the nvidia drivers and enable sound manually, but I was able to play gaymes on it

Ok OP. Where can I download an iso?

That's kinda weird. I won't use that on a desktop.

Server 2022 should be a whole new level of annoying, since there's no client SKU of build 20348.
I can't actually wrap my head around why LTSC 2022 was built 19044, but Server 2022 wasn't.

I've reinstalled IOT LTSC, but it wasn't that bad. I just didn't like the way windows server works, I'm going back to using WSL for my websites

>Windows users: lol why are you using Linux as a desktop OS? Everyone knows it's for servers.
>also Windows users:

because we can do it

Because I don't have the need to use a shitty OS I interact with at work on my home PCs.

ltsc 2022 = w10 21h2 = 19044
server 2022 based off of w11 build/kernel? we all know that w11 is just a coat of shit colored paint on top of w10

it is, but everything looks and feels like w10 UI-wise
