I fully agree that we need to support it for agents. Supporting Windows on ARM (and really, applies to most platforms, when slightly less mainstream in the developer community) properly and durably for controllers is another discussion and endeavor IMO.
>From the Jenkins Project's standpoint, it boils down to having enough contributors able & willing to support running controllers on Windows. And I'm unconvinced we are there. Now, I agree this is only a gut-feeling. So to check what's the situation, I looked at https://stats.jenkins.io/ and I couldn't find any stats on OSes. I cannot remember if we ever implemented this, do we have some data on this? I haven't looked at stats gathering for a long time, is this still coming from https://github.com/jenkins-infra/infra-statistics?
