Also, calling Microsoft as M$ is pretty cringe, like, are they really any more money grabbing than Apple, Amazon or any other big tech?
I'd argue M$ has more of a monopoly rhan any other big tech company (except maybe google in search and the mobile OS ecosystem, but at least their mobile OS is FOSS, though they are working on making it worse by removing essential apps from AOSP) and Apple has other issues (A locked down ecosystem, but it doesn't have a majority market share, luckily, or the world will be an objectively worse place)
“M$” was funny on slashdot 20 years ago but it’s a bit tired now.
No longer funny, but very much accurate
