The best one I’ve ever heard is they like the Microsoft wallpapers. Yes i told them you can use them on linux too. But they argued with me that they wouldn’t be compatible.

I can’t think of a good story from personal experience, so I’ll share a wild objection from some guy on the internet from, I think 2007. The story pops into my head from time to time. This guy insisted that it would be impossible to create an entire OS that can run from start to finish without the resources of a major software company. He argued that therefore Linux must actually be a pirated, reskinned version of Windows. https://danielandrade.net/posts/linux-windows-misconceptions-tech-story/
I checked the Wayback machine to try to find more messages from that thread because I think he kept posting and doubling down. But pulling up ancient ZDNet forum posts is slow enough that I gave up.
To be fair, nowadays the Linux kernel does rely quite a bit on resources from major software (and hardware) companies.
No biggie here. Just one of the pawns in MS’s FUD tactics.
The naivety.
That person can’t be real…
I think you need to re-examine your assumptions.
Omg please kill me 😭
