Comment on Why do you hate Microsoft?
sir_reginald@lemmy.world 9 months agoI don’t believe better billionaires are a thing. Bill Gates has done a lot of shady stuff, but he’s incredibly good at covering that up on the media. Anyway, I changed the title of that section because it was inappropriate (even if it was a reference to the movie).

I think the entire Bill Gates part can be omitted, when he’s got nothing to do with Microsoft now. Even if you hate him, there’s no point elaborating about him when this is an essay on Microsoft, and not Bill Gates. You could mention him briefly at the beginning of the article saying how he was the co-founder, but that’s all that would be relevant. Everything else should be written from the perspective of Microsoft, even if Bill Gates was the person behind that action, because once again, you’re writing an essay about a company.

Bill Gates still owns around 0.9% of Microsoft, which is a lot for such a big company.
I get your point and maybe the Bill Gates part should be it’s own thing. Thanks for your feedback, I’ll talk about it with my friend.
