Totally not paid my Microsoft to try and force people to use their bullshit
Try to*
Why do you think that?
Probably more that they want to support any major OSes, and Linux just doesn't have the market share they deem profitable enough.
I think it's a web app, and it shouldn't matter what fucking OS I use.
Really now?
It's a web page. Webpages have shit to do with the operation system. Webpages however have been a classic Microsoft truck to force people on their shit software (hello ie6 hell!) so you can pretty much bet money on it that this is done at the request of a manager who got a good deal with Microsoft.
