    Linus tech tips did a video about this where he had his team use other tools. Essentially he was like, it would end up costing him more or the same as it would take his team longer to do the same stuff and relearn.

    It might have been a shortsighted video, but you can look it up if you want to.

      Indeed. Retraining and the extra time using a new tool is a short term loss for what should be a long term gain. The transition will always suck.

      Obviously, LTT doesn’t see the long-term benefit of retraining his team to not be attached to monthly subscription bullshit.

      Short-term quarterly-profit energy.
