On one hand, I absolutely support leaving Microsoft behind. On the other hand, I don’t know that this form of action is likely to really be felt by Microsoft, and I think the FSFs sort of evangelical approach to sharing what’s special and worthwhile about free software often just kinda feeds negative sentiments towards FOSS as a worthwhile cause.

One of my close friends was, for a long time, kinda hostile to the idea of anything open source because her experiences with open source folks always sucked.

I’m just kinda typing out the thoughts this prompted, this isn’t necessarily a response specifically or exclusively to the article.
