Asking people in mass to switch from MS and Mac to anything else is a heavy lift. They have had 30 years of entrenchment and the average person has no clue of the differences just the cost, availability, and ease of use. it is like asking to go from toilet paper to bidets (not a comment on the value of the products just the pain in switching from a long-term highly available item to one not yet mainstream for society).

“Asking people in mass to switch from MS and Mac to anything else is a heavy lift.”

I do agree.(except one thing)

That’s why I responded to the “hill to die on” comment.

Someone who thinks this is a “hill to die on” will stop being an “average person” and they will go die on the hill, they will make the “heavy lift” a reality and they will switch.

Thus why I said, you can tell who the posers and fakers are who do not think this is a hill to die on - they’re sticking with Win/Mac. This is easy.

The one point I disagree with is the “asking people in mass”

I’m only asking people right now who believe this is a hill to die on.

Prove it. If you believe this is the hill? Prove it.
