In the end, because of regulatory pressure, the only pressure that matters in a commercial environment, there will be three supported OS's: a windows one, a mac one, and probably one, and only one, Linux distribution, or flavor thereof. Everything else will be toast in a commercial environment. For Linux there might be this AWS one, and that Google one, but they'll be close. And, in order to satisfy regulatory requirements, they'll be very, very close. Commercial organizations have bosses and, more ominously, regulators. We, and they, need a checkbox checked. So let's not fool ourselves with thoughts of freedom and liberty. There's a real world out there.

CrowdStrike screwed up, but there's more chance that a 1000 linux's go to one than 1 CrowdStrike goes to zero.
