  • About 15 years ago Microsoft had this great idea.

    What if we forced everyone to use our software on the web so they can’t buy it.

    Macros will no longer work, but not many people use macros so fuck those guys, they are nerds anyway.

    This became the heyday of the Libre Software movement. And the reason I still occasionally use it.

    Companies run on the simple automation the nerds create with Macros and companies aren’t going to hire a bunch more clerks so they can pay more for shittier software.

    TL;DR, Microsoft backed down when people voted with their feet and not before.
