Microsoft Windows Has Lost Another 2 Million Web Sites This Past Month Alone (IIS Floundering)

Summary: The rapid decline of Microsoft, Windows and IIS in servers is undeniable; it's just a damn shame that corporate and so-called 'tech' media never writes about this subject

EARLIER today the "July 2021 Web Server Survey" was released, stating that "[t]"he number of websites powered by Microsoft IIS (Internet Information Services) fell by 1.92 million to 51.6 million this month. These sites are spread across 13.5 million unique domains and use several different versions of IIS."



It then goes into a long ramble about IIS versions and Azure, which is failing (there are even layoffs). Microsoft is nowadays trying to become a Web host, seeing that as a provider of web-hosting software it is failing very fast. That's also why Microsoft bought a bunch of companies such as GitHub, hoping to somehow leverage control/power over developers (they moved away from there as well).

"Right now the strategy of Microsoft is a hostile takeover of alternatives to Microsoft."In the video above I show that Microsoft was delisted from almost all the tables due to its irrelevance (miniscule market share).

It's likely that Microsoft's "Plan B" or contigency would be to hijack the competitors. It is a classic Microsoft move and it is the reason Microsoft ambushed GitHub for a takeover since 2014. It's a very malicious cult that presents itself as a company. Jeremy Stretch has just published this article entitled "Corporate Participation in the Open Source Community" and he seems to be unaware of the risks of Corporate Takeover. This article mentions GitHub as if it is something desirable, but it is a hostile abduction of projects to undermine the freedom of software and to interfere with communities (giving Microsoft control over them). This obsession with business at the expense of communities (like Microsoft's meddling in NGINX and other projects, even Apache) is something that needs both explaining and understanding. Right now the strategy of Microsoft is a hostile takeover of alternatives to Microsoft. We can't let them do it. Just go away and leave us all alone. You've done more than enough damage.
