all of us 'you cant keep relying on corporations, they will betray you, every single corporate product you consume is basically the one ring' open source nerds get to say the MOST satisfying "I told you so"'s. nobody cares, of course, you'll all keep using this shit, but it feels SO good.
open source nerds need to keep their fucking mouths shut until they deliver a end-user grade linux distro.
It's been 25 fuckdamn years already...
I mean, we do, and there are different philosophies of computing that have different effects on users, and the philosophy that users should be infantilized and USED instead of grown and nurtured as peddled by shit heads like steve jobs is exemplified by all the enshittification currently dominating every single thing you've bought in the last decade that had so much as an RFID chip in it.
but also, it would be great if windows would deliver an end user grade windows distro. i miss those.
the point is, these corporate products are not usable, they are not stable, and they are not a good long term decision. any business that uses these is unbelievably stupid and deserves to get crowdstruck. the fact that the instability is political and your shit can just be bricked remotely on zero notice rather than due to being difficult to configure is not a point in their favor.
And you wonder why people don't take linux cultists seriously...
yes, im a linux cultist who was really sad when windows 7 stopped getting updates.
instability is instability. you don't make a factory in a politically unstable place, and you don't use a product from a for-profit company that is prone to enshittification and could remotely brick it at any point without warning. risks are risks.
