People buy products based on the value proposition of those products, not because they are hippies that want to support independent technology makers.

I don't understand why factual statement and reality checks get modded down; this is just plain denial.

What an odd reply. Where possible, I will try and support independent technology makers, often even if that means it's a slightly worse/different product.

Just because you're cynical and jaded, doesn't mean that everyone else is. You're not giving a factual reality check, you're just being an ass
