It's always MS who has people on the internet defending them when they do it, to the point that it looks like MS social media presence is being carefully managed, like Apple. I saw it happen on Reddit too, and it happened less and less the more they got called out. The same "$70 a year for Office 365 is so worth it" is a talking point when I was on Reddit. Apparently, people here say the same thing.
It really is amazing to me that lemmy suddenly has an army of anti linux shills on it. Idk what the purpose of that even is.
I'm not defending them. I just dislike the silly MS-hate train. As if they were the only ones doing it. If apple does it, it's a feature. MS is evil. That's as boring and old like IE-jokes that are still around. I have more Linux-machines than win-machines in my home lab.
And every major crap has its fanboys and marketing-workforce defending their shit.
