That quote doesn't mean what you think it means. And you haven't been saying it was done for profit, you've been saying it was done because "people voted with their wallet".

Companies will do something if they have a profit incentive to do so. They will not do things if they do not have a profit incentive to do so. People voting with their wallet creates a profit incentive.

People voting with their wallet creates no profit incentive. It's what I've been trying to explain to you since your very first comment.

Do nothing and be rude to the people trying to do something

Got it.

You've run out of excuses, I see.

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Excuses for what? I still don't understand what you're expecting people to do seeing as "not buying the thing" doesn't seem to be good enough for you.

I don't care about what he buys. I care that he's telling people who wanna play a game that doesn't work on Linux to play a different game or to go back to Windows. So the dozens of people who did switch to Linux are now being told Windows was the better choice.
