The part where they say that using Linux instead of Windows is like leaving the US for Canada when Trump gets elected, and apparently it's bad because it means you don't help improve things for Windows (lol).

I know it sounds just like a joke, but it isn't. Tim Sweeney is really such a moron. Source: https://twitter.com/timsweeneyepic/status/964284402741149698

Didn't that actually happen though? Not a massive exodus but loads of people actually did/tried to leave.

It's not about it happening, it's about the results of those who leave.

Basically, if in the U.S. voters leave to another country based on a political choice, they are now removing their political choice meaning any dissent there may have been is now gone.

So, with Linux being like Canada, Windows refugees are removing any option of OS improvement for Windows.

That's a stupid take because people don't have the right to vote on the future of Windows, it's a Microsoft dictatorship.
