I have no idea what the product is like in this case, so that's fair. And I would, of course, not presume to tell you how to spend your money. I guess I'm thinking about similar "friendly suggestions" I have gotten to use Linux over the years which, if I didn't know Linux wasn't (inherently) commercial, might have thought meant that Linux was an inferior product that was being guerilla marketed. And I would only know that by looking it up.

Not the best analogy, but I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.

Yeah, my approach is definitely not "one size fits all", but in this case I feel fine about it.

Fuck me, you managed to shoehorn your use of linux into a conversation about cars. Bravo.

It was the first example I could think of off the top of my head. I honestly don't give a shit if someone doesn't use Linux.
