> First, constant churn that always breaks backward compatibility forcing upgrades and never allowing any old software to be used without a permanently high maintenance burden. Is that not what enterprise Linux is for? You just pay for that if you need it. And also what about exceptions like python and such. > Third, FOSS has become a religion for many. All things must be FOSS because it’s a holy conquest, and if just everything were FOSS all would be perfection because reasons. This seems dismissive since there are actually well-thought out arguments for these things posted everywhere, they are not based on faith nor worship. This dismissal is tantamount to you saying you don't care about the same things that they care about. How could this possibly effect you negatively? > Unfortunately, I’ve seen things only get worse as FOSS has come to dominate the world. These could be completely unrelated, and maybe everything would still have been crap, but I cannot help but think that were people forced to pay for development they’d be more discerning. That's pretty vague, care to clarify?
