If you had told me ten years ago that Microsoft would one day become one of our best allies in the attempt to persuade people to use open source for their own damn good, I would probably have sarcastically replied something like "yeah and next you'll be telling me somehow Oracle will sour people on centralized social media too."

...Huh. What a weird timeline.
