What I find interesting is all the blame appears to be getting laid at Toby’s feet. They’re not tree experts, why are the people that felled it not also under fire?

They of everyone involved should have known best to say “fuck no, I ain’t cutting that down”. But they were paid to cut down a tree so they took the money and cut down the tree.

That’s not to say the carvery shouldn’t be under fire, I just think the tree experts should be mostly held accountable rather than a pub manager.

Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor, yeah

I think you’re forgetting the power of consumers. At work you might not be able to replace Photoshop or Microsoft but at home you certainly can. The more people that become familiar with alternative software the more likely professional environments are to adopt it.

Why would a company want to pay Adobe or Microsoft if their employees are more adept with free alternatives? Especially if those alternatives gain feature parity with the paid services while the paid services lock parts behind paywalls and subscriptions.

Don’t let perfect get in the way of good!
