TechConnectify@mas.to - Oh my gosh I just figured it out.
Okay, all you open source evangelist people: your knee-jerk reaction to come at people who are talking about a problem with whatever commercial software they use and suggest Your Favorite Alternatives™ is exactly like saying “why don’t you just buy a house?” to someone complaining about their landlord.
TechConnectify@mas.to - Actually, to borrow from @DoubleA, it’s worse than that.
It’s like talking to someone who is in a crappy apartment as though they have the agency and skills to stake out a plot of land and build their own home.
You have to be at peace with the fact that some people just want to exist and not worry about so many things. And they still have a right to complain about their situation.

If they ask help with a problem in software, then telling them to switch to a completely different software is never a solution.
If the software is forced by the company they work for, then they do not have a choice to install a different one.
So stop looking at problems from only your perspective.
It’s the only perspective I have, unfortunately.
There are always two opinions: mine and the wrong one
