      Exactly, Fortune 500 companies and their stupid business garbage using software.

      It’s not a problem with software, it’s a big tech problem. You made it clearer than i could have. Linux maintainers arent business school graduates, but they still need to be paid decades after the “software is done”. It’s not free

      And if you mean providing random statistics and no sources is business 101, i can hardly disagree

        The cost of maintaining the Linux tech stack is cheaper than maintaining the Windows tech stack primarily because Linux doesn’t have this enormous administrative bloat.

        It’s not free, but it is significantly cheaper.

        providing random statistics and no sources

        I’ll show you mine when you show me yours.
