Here's the definition as defined by apples store requirements:

My guess is they will probably ask for your gender or face scan etc.

Number of systems is not relevant with hypervisor licensing. Have you not quoted that? Its honestly not bad for being able to run an unlimited amount of servers.

Windows isn’t typically meant to run manually installed web servers or apps that would also run on Linux.

For example, unless you’re Microsoft you wouldn’t set up IIS just to run a web server and manually configure it all unless you had a good reason.

Microsoft Windows Server absolutely excels at this though - Apps built for Windows. If an app is built for Windows then you typically don’t have to do the manually fiddly stuff like authentication and database setup. It will typically do it for you. It will just be an Exe you run and click next next and you’re done.

So I would recommend one of the following

  • run a Windows Server Core (headless) and have docker/kubernetes inside it.
  • run windows server (maybe core headless depending on app) and find an app worth trying that’s made for windows.

The best example app I can think of that is made for Windows that would need Windows Server and is so simple to install is PRTG or Veeam B&R. Both huge apps in Enterprise and both only run on Windows.

Honestly, it’s kind of a terrible experience.

You can just try to join them all but the problem we will run into is people not following or remembering the rules of each.

It perhaps would have been better if their couldn’t be duplicates but then who decides which domain can host which community?

My gut feeling is it will probably only get better if the websites and apps make it super clear with design and font that they are separate.

Ex. Informally Videos@lemmy.world is shown with a font color and an icon next to it in all apps and domains so it becomes uniquely recognizable.

This is just an unfortunate downside of a federated system.
