I see the FUD is still alive to this day.
Who here remembers when Microsoft launched a full-on FUD obfuscation campaign to tell companies that if they used Linux, they wouldn’t ever own anything they made and would have to give it away for free?

Linux@programming.dev•France has ditched Windows 11 for Linux on 2.5 million government PCsEnglish
5·4 days agoFrance for whatever reason tends not to export much tech, so I think many people don’t realize how tech-savvy they have historically always been.

I’m sort of 50:50 on that one. Whilst it’s a truism that controversy drives engagement, I think it’s still a winnable fight to make it clear to platform owners that most people really do not like slop.

hmm, this looks photoshopped
