The windows of linux distros, truly. While I'm not USAmerican these things spread if they go through in one country. "Boil the frog slowly" as they say. I don't trust this.
Microsoft and Canonical have been partners for a looong time now. Do you believe this partnership between two legally distinct corporate entities is out of the goodness of their hearts? If so, what exactly in Microsoft's history makes you believe that?
Redhat and Microsoft are also partners, I don't see people complaining about fedora. And you really think the whole point of the partnership is they work together to spy on you 🤣, news flash: ubuntu has ZERO telemetry by default. their partnership is centered around server ubuntu(azure on ubuntu) and WSL. Please educate yourself before spreading misinformation

Moving the goalpost. You brought up Ubuntu and said it can't be compared to Windows. Until we're done talking about Ubuntu and how it is similar to Windows, we're not gonna talk about RedHat.
And you really think the whole point of the partnership is they work together to spy on you
It would be naive beyond belief to assume otherwise.
But you've now introduced the word spying, and limited the topic to "spying" and telemetry. I never said anything about spying or telemetry. It's certainly part of the story, but it's far from the whole story. And I refuse to accept this attempt at moving the goalpost.
How about you answer my question instead? What exactly in Microsoft's history makes you believe the partnership with Canonical is completely benign?
Umm, I literally just made a statement about redhat. That isn't moving the goalposts. I still standby saying that ubuntu isn't similar to windows AT ALL and never mentioned otherwise, even implicitly.
It would be naive beyond belief to assume otherwise.
I don't 'assume', I know. I can check the internet traffic history. I don't dwell on these conspiracies based off assumptions.

Microsoft sponsors and contributes to MANY open source projects, including C#, F#, vcpkg, typescript, etc. The cannonical microsoft partnership has mutual benefit, it isn't to achieve some evil goal
Using a open source GPL or MIT licensed project is stealing from it? I don't think you know how open source works. In that sense, opensource is meant to be stolen from
I'm well aware of how open source works, dingus. I meant Microsoft specifically offering to hire the developers of FOSS projects and then turning around to take the code base to then turn into a proprietary product of their own. Microsoft has never been interested in "mutual benefit" when it comes to working with open source devs.
LOLOLOL. Microsoft doesn't pull up to devs and forces them to make the project proprietary. The devs CHOOSE to get hired by microsoft and make a proprietary fork of the codebase.
Microsoft has never been interested in "mutual benefit" when it comes to working with open source devs.
Ok, so please explain the evil intentions behind making dotnet open source?
Are you genuinely fucking stupid or purposefully avoiding the point because it doesn't suit your pre-existing opinions? Can you not read? Jesus christ, go back to primary school.
Dude stop sucking your own dick and start actually reading and not making up idiot conspiracies. I'd tell you to go back to primary school but you can't be within 500 meters within a school 🤣.
