If a massive amount of conservatives actually were serious about doing more than just complaining, and got off of big tech Microsoft, that would significantly alter the entire technological scene. The obvious home would be Linux.

Umm... you do understand that the grand majority of Microsoft market share is from their Azure cloud business, right? You planning to boycott all of the companies using Azure? How about Microsoft 365? Might as well become Amish, bud. Going to Linux means NOTHING to Microsoft. Matter of fact, over 60% of their cloud business runs on Linux.

I think you're missing the forest for the trees.

What Neil Young himself cost Spotify, what do you think? 50 bucks? 75 bucks?

It's not about revenue. Forget the revenue. This is a waste of discussion time.

It's about market share. That's the weak spot.

No conservatives want to hurt big tech's market share, so we keep losing and big tech keeps winning.
