Still it is a shame that we're kept back literally decades when it comes to file exchange due to corporate culture polluting every corner of IT. Ensuring file export options plus file formats full documentation, should be among the most important requirements any software should satisfy to be even considered for professional use.
- tharkun__ 5y agoI agree with your want. Wholeheartedly. Alas you are right in that this culture is all over Corporate World (yes not just America). Vendor lock-in is something that's been with us since forever and I doubt it will ever go away. They might have gotten better at hiding it from obviously being spotted but that's about it and in some other cases it's still just as clear as always but the marketing people are still very good at selling it to customers.
