Not hating on open source, just let people use what fits their expectations and needs and stop deterring them with gatekeeping :P

I use Linux and tons of other open source software daily. I have published and maintain a number of open source projects, and contribute regularly to others.

I also pay for closed source software and have a few proprietary apps that I sell.

There's a place for both models, they're not exclusive.
