What do you mean? I've witnessed many exoduses in technology, the most obvious ones being MySQL > PostgreSQL. And from PHP to JS & Python.

I don't think it's too far fetched for people clinging to their favorite GNU/Linux distro to switch to FreeBSD, especially on the server side where in my opinion, FreeBSD is the superior choice.

I think the world is better off when there are choices and the Linux near mono culture is not good for the FOSS movement, in my opinion.
