  • Shouldn’t you at least understand the reason why it is that way? Or are you going to blame Linux when there’s no single entity behind it?

    Microsoft struck shady deals with laptop vendors to make them microsoft exclusive. Steve Ballmer effectively said Linux is cancer (probably blaming GPL license). They let people pirate their software so future technologists grew up with windows and other windows software (adobe did the same with photoshop, now it’s industry monopoly)

    A community OS like GNU/Linux competes with Microsoft who has billions in the bank. It’s only in the past few years that Linux has seen wider hardware vendor adoption at all.

    It’s fine if you think Linux is non-viable… but speak for yourself. Don’t go around trolling people who are perfectly fine with Linux.

    Edit: if you don’t care about anything I just wrote then you’re just a horse with blinders on and I am wasting my time.
