Considering that pretty much every organization I’ve worked at or taught at uses Google Drive, gmail, docs and sheets since about 2013, it’s impossible.

Not buying Microsoft products again (Microsoft is just as bad with SSO) and I won’t ever ever use open-source shitware pretending to be office productivity software.

Open-source, Microsoft and Apple products are just as bad. Mostly liberals or Indians run it.

So... just... don't use computers?

I’ve helped with development for the open source operating systems, one Linux distribution and NetBSD, and I’m an American of European descent. The other developers and systems people are of various nationalities, and politics are not discussed. Technology is the focus.

Over the years, I’ve been more personally acquainted with only a very few of the open source developers and users for testing. Several were conservative, and several were liberals (i.e., conservative and liberal in the U.S. senses of those labels).

Many of the developers of smaller proprietary, closed source apps written in higher level languages (easier to write) have been leftists (my experiences in commercial offices with web script kiddies, JAVA developers and the like), but most of them were young.
