Unlikely, cons0omers don’t buy ideology and don't care about reason. They want to pay money and get complete product that is easy enough for person with not too many brain connections, not to just justify missing features for values.

    Fortunately, they not not have to remain, and are not innately and inescapably "cons0omers".

    I was such a corporate fanboy consumer in the 90s... Until I (frankly) "turned on, tuned in, and dropped out".

    I sure wasn't the first, not the only since / wont be the last.

    ... Even despite the promise of "AI" (LLM/HRM/MCP) atrophying people's brains even further into dependence.

    Also worth noting: ... ... Linux use % keeps rising slowly. (Currently over 5% I hear.)
