And someone once raised their kids speaking Klingon, that isn't a good excuse on why it's a language others should use.

For the vast majority of people MS365 is a requirement, but really the issue is that even minor fixes require the command line on Linux and that makes it unusable.

No it isn't actually, not for the majority, my wife (former Sales Person and Manager) uses Google office tools and used LibreOffice Write and Calc for years successfully.

None of this is true

I guess it means that even when something is (arguably) objectively more simple, people still won't bdge just because they don't want change. They don't want to learn new things.

I myself am quite different. I have thoroughly had it with my current iPhone and am eyeballing /e/OS, before that I really started to find Android boring, before that Windows mobile (the nice one with the cards). I switch Gnome, KDE, some other DE (now getting ready to try Niri) every year or 2. I don't get the struggle, for me a new env is like a present (even though I normally hate presents). So much niceness to explore, so much to optimize. I love it. But I'm also one of those guys that reads the oven manual and tries all functions in week 1.

I'm not weird, all you people are weird.

No, it means that people have requirements that Linux does not fulfill. I need the Office suite, and would rather not gamble with the various compatibility promises made by alternatives.
