Why Microsoft open sourced PowerShell and ported it to Linux (www.cio.com)

In the comments section of a recent post I found out that Windows PowerShell had been ported to Linux. Had no clue it was a thing.

Went looking and found this old article attempting to explain why they did it. Not remotely interested in giving up Bash for PowerShell, but I thought it was interesting enough to share. The article seems to be from 2016.

I have never been more tempted to check the NSFW box, but I'll leave it open for now unless a mod complains. :-D

Long ago I tried a cygwin based openssh server in Windows. Permissions were a real issue.
