Yeah, the downvotes are unsurprising, but at least I don’t see a reason to downvote on an idea unless it is inherently an intentional insupt or something along those line.
I don’t think your idea is the best, but it is an idea, and that alone makes it worth exploring, as you mentioned. My disagreement with your idea comes precisely by your point. There are plenty of people that do not move away from Windows or Mac precisely because the software they “need” is not available. If these companies made their software available on some Linux distros, there’s a very good chance some of their “hostages” will still pay for them. DaVinci resolve is good example of this.
