It is well possible (and even encouraged) to actively despise both Microsoft's enshittification of its software and the harassments by the Stockholm syndrome'd Linux community.
As opposed to the MS Stockholm syndrome going on here?
Honestly, despite me not using either of those operating systems, I much prefer the Microsoft guys here. They don't try to convert everyone to their religion.
Is that a thing? I don't think I have ever heard someone defend microslop on here and you can bet it's different for Linux.
I meant more the comment I was replying to rather than Lemmy as a whole.
It’s a bit Stockholmy to say “I know it’s completely enshittifying and awful but I don’t want to switch to a free alternative “
I'm kind of in the same boat though. Compatibility still breaks lots of things people don't think about.
There's quite a few people I can confidently recommend Linux to, but there's also a bunch I can't.
I tried setting up my DAW setup with external plugins and even with huge limitations I couldn't get it to work. I tried 8 times, with 5 different configurations. This is not feasible. I had to switch back, and I hate that I had to do it, but I'm working with artists and costumers, and things need to work fast and stable.
oh no! help me! I'm trapped on an operating system I chose that I can configure however I want and that I can leave whenever I want!
unlike Windows, the default OS on 99% of machines, that people keep using despite the constant enshitification because of 1 or 2 softwares won't run elsewhere and are thus trapped, no Stockholm syndrom here.
systemd disagrees.
All operating systems, except (maybe) iOS, do that.
Devuan, Gentoo, Slackware.
Other operating systems.
There are (a few) distros that don't even uses systemd and anyway you can still tinker with systemd.
And by leaving, I meant I'm not stuck (like the Stockholm syndrome of your comment implied) on linux and can actually leave to BSD or other (or even back to windows if I ever get brain damage, who knows), so basicaly I don't know where you get your "Stockholm syndrome" from.
If that's all you took from my comment, I think that's fine.
Stockholm would require the situation to be bad in some way. It is not.
