Has this line of thinking ever actually convinced even one person?
It's why FOSS can't make serious inroads in a lot of domains. Like 20 years ago I was convinced we'd all never be paying for Word, but here we are, 20 years later, still buying Word.
- zakki 6y agoMaybe the one paying Word got eaten by a marketing team? There are free alternatives. It works for my needs though.
- ClumsyPilot 6y agoWord does exactly what it says on the tin and doesnt steal your data. Facebook/google on the other hand...
- ggvvfdde 6y agoAre you sure? What is the Microsoft upload center that gets installed with word? I can't figure out how to disable it.
- ekianjo 6y ago> I was convinced we'd all never be paying for Word, but here we are, 20 years later, still buying Word. Inertia has long lasting effects.
- lupire 6y agoWe are buying Word?
- devoutsalsa 6y agoThe fact that anything at all happens for $0 is amazing. It's hard to find half-decent volunteer opportunities in general.
