      The post has been put out by the people that made Mastodon. Why should anyone trust you over them when you provide 0 arguments against them.

      Embrace Extend Extinguish was always a Microsoft strategy and one they have been forced to abandon over the years. Their attitude changed towards open source because it doesn’t work! I think you might be the one who is lacking in knowledge or “education” here.

        Open source doesnt work? Would love to see a source on that one alone. Almost sounds like you have an agenda to sell.

          I think you misinterpreted what they said. They meant “Their attitude changed towards open source because [Embrace, Extend, Extinguish] doesn’t work”

              I had to read it twice because I misinterpreted it the same way.

              Their attitude changed towards open source because it doesn’t work!

              That “it” could be interpreted either as ‘open source’ or ‘EEE’ from the previous sentence.

              The sentence itself is a little ambiguous but it’s nothing major, it’s easy enough to get the message from context
