This sounds extremely elitist, even when I agree with the words that you wrote. 😅

Microsoft just doesn't need to innovate, because they already hold a monopoly. If they do innovate, it's something their investors care about, not their users...

Oh! No no! Don't get me wrong! I do not think Linux users are superior to Windows users, just that Linux as a platform is superior because it tends to respect users' more, protects their privacy, often people developing for Linux tend to think about how to make their software more useful (as opposed to just more profitable), which in turn leads to an overall better platform for users.

It is a superior (as in "better") choice for the people.

...I also think Linux users are better than Windows users.

@caseyweederman @Bro666 that only means one of three things:
a) your sample size of Linux users is too small
b) the echo chamber of Linux users you measure yourself against is too homogeneous (and y'all happen to be nice guys)
or c) you really aren't a nice guy and you just look down on all Windows users equally.

There's a lot of nice Windows users - and there's a lot of not-so-nice Linux users. Don't get confused when measuring up people - judging a whole group from your POV isn't good at all.

@caseyweederman @Bro666 Remember - from the proper POV, everyone's an asshole :)
