I said desktop. You literally quoted it.
Linux server and Linux desktop aren't the same thing.
They totally are the same thing, it's called a Linux Distribution and you run the same exact software that runs on a server. There's not Debian Desktop and Debian Server, it's just one distribution. It's clear you're just looking to be dismissive without really understanding what you're talking about.
It's not like whatever software you can't do your job without would have to be written twice for Linux Servers and Desktops, it's the same thing. Where again is this distinction you're trying to make?
The distinction I am making is that most software developers don't consider Linux Desktop a real OS, and that's why Linsux nerds are begging for developers to release Linux versions.
