It’s time to switch to Linux! Because it’s free as in freedom.

    that specifically says open, not free. it is marketing buzzword you can project really anything into.

      It doesn’t resemble open in any legitimate interpretation of the word, though.

      Even if you hack your way to a tolerable experience, they can and will randomly revert changes you make on a whim.

            we are. “open” can mean lot of things, and the original post was not about open, it was about free. no one has to be convinced windows are not free, it is as surprising as the fact people don’t fuck for love in brothel.

            if anything, this is far more funny:

              Open absolutely cannot mean a lot of things, and there is no possible legitimate definition of open that could ever in any context be used to describe Windows, with the sole exception of “open to bad actors”.

              It’s a locked down, restrictive, broken pile of shit.
