Comment on Hurray! This German State Decides to Save €15 Million Each Year By Kicking Out Microsoft for Open Source

You missing the point of my comment, not me.

5 million a year would go a long way towards making their open source solutions meet their needs.

Look, those people think that it will be profitable. That it will save shit ton of money out of thin air. That what I call copium.

I did not said “it’s bad” to adopt linux, quite the opposite. What I said is that commenters here operate on a fate, not on a logic.

That comment does not state that imo. I interpret it as „If they would spend that money on the transitions and advancing the open source projects they consider switching to, that would help the process“. But maybe that’s just a misunderstanding.

  What do you meant :c
  
  It’s right there, literally in the first sentence:
  
  Amount of copium is insane in comments. Like, people straight up using fate, like it’s a fockin religion, instead of using their head.

    Well I was of course talking about the comment you quoted.

    How is that „using fate instead of using their head“? Germany already has funds in place specifically for open source projects so that’s not so far off the charts (even though the amount would be lower) so what’s your point ?
