Who gives a fuck? If you still use microslop, you are part of the problem.

    It's nearly ubiquitous in the workplace. A lot of people don't have much of a choice.

    Still, they are part of the problem. Not as big as their corporate IT or responsible manager, but still a part.

    What the fuck are they supposed to do? Burn down the company, and go homeless? As a Linux daily driver (both home and work; I'm just fortunate on the latter), you are making a really dumb argument.

    Me getting paid - and therefore eating and paying rent - requires me to use the mandated OS on the company-provided gear. It's a great job, it has a great union retirement package that won't leave me destitute like my folks and anyone else who went through abject poverty, and in all I accept that trade-off while working to modernize us out of M$. So maybe moderate that crusade a bit before you enter the workforce?

    You are reading a "I condemn you" where there isn't one into "you are part of the problem".

    If I participate to an economy which exploits third world countries for quality of life and luxury, then even if I do not have a choice, I am part of the problem.

    Becoming all defensive about it however suggests that you actually don't give a fuck about using an operating system operated by a fascist enabling corporation, while looking for excuses that it's "not your fault".

    No idea why people are so supportive of this idea all of a sudden... the downvotes make little sense especially here on Lemmy/piefed. Regardless of it being a positive decision it's still fucking MicroSlop.

    Yeah, I do feel too many people would have continued to use HitlerOS after he started the Holocaust, because not supporting genocide would inconvenience them. And yes, compared to microslop supporting a government that (supports a government that) commits genocide, finding a different job is an acceptable ask if one gets upset over being called complicit.
