    Feel free to show a usecase where that is the case. the actual cost and opportunity cost of a vendor lock in is quite severe.

      I mean Power BI is an example in this thread. Or any software that requires an ISO certification. Or any industrial application like CAD. Basically any piece of software which cannot be used for a hobby doesn’t have an open source alternative. And even some hobbies don’t really have alternatives. I mean I would love to replace Fusion 360 with something open source, but FreeCAD is a joke.
