Sorry I am not going down this low brow path. We can agree to disagree. I just don’t think it helps an ecosystem to tell people the software they want to run is garbage.



I do. I think it helps the ecosystem more than any other reaction. I'm not sure we can agree to disagree. I don't think you are allowing it, and certainly I am not.


Actually I think "agree to disagree" was exactly right.

It doesn't mean we accept each others opinion as different yet valid, we still call each other wrong, but the point is it ends there with recognizing and accepting an impasse rather than progressing to pistolas at dawn, right?

Except wait, my whole problem was never that someone was ok with the deal (pay for a product or service that doesn't serve you), it was only with trying to say that everyone else also has to be ok with it.

Except wait again, that might have been your original point too. Not to put words in your mouth but would it be fair to say that you originally had no problem with someone declining to use some software, but only with telling someone else they should do the same?

Do we in the end have no real argument?
