There's diminishing returns, and we have lives outside our phones. Well, most of us. We can put a limited amount of time and energy into this, but pushing Linux requires a great deal of effort and time.

Not saying we shouldn't also do that, but in the mean time fighting to keep the options we do have less shitty shouldn't be completely abandoned.

You’re right. The green fascists will probably change their minds and just be cool about this.

You're right, we should just roll over instead of fighting for a better future.

My original comment’s point was we should push as hard as we can into Linux and abandon green fascism all together
