If you go to different car dealers you find different cars. If you go to different computer shops you find Windows computers, Macs and Chromebooks. Macs are very expensive and Chromebooks are very limited, so you buy a Windows machine. People don’t even know what Linux is, and you can’t really blame them. They just want a machine to do everyday stuff with, and not to have to invest too much time or money in finding one.

I get that part. But then we have to do better. We can’t just stand there and be like: “It is what it is.” And with “we” I mean society as a whole: manufacturers, users, educators, governments (tbh, it is astonishingly weird that it is legal to force ship literal spyware with bought hardware), floss community etc.
