- mr_toad 4y agoNone of those things were around in the early 00s.
- __d 4y agoWell, Windows was, but that's not the point. The parent comment noted that there was a generation who shunned Microsoft because of their corporate misbehavior. More recent generations of programmers have forgotten why that was, and Microsoft has, once again, successfully established a dominant position in the development ecosystem. I fully expect that position to be leveraged for profit, and that would see a new generation, 25 years later, who will never trust Microsoft again. Most things are cyclical.
