Linux indeed the most used OS in server industry since it's free. Big companies run thousand of server and of course they won't pay for Windows license so we all here with Linux dominating the whole market.
And linux requires less resources than windows.Windows is more like a system for home users while linux is somehow for geek users.And many commands are different.You don't have "copy" but to use cp instead.And since on most times you have to use SSH you should at least know some command-line usage.One more thing is different releases have not-always-the-same features like different package managers and maybe the application you need don't natively support your OS.But anyway linux have more pros than cons.
