I have been using Linux as a main platform for years and eventually was fed up with the graphical interface. I switched to Mac which, with Aqua, has the best ergonomy around (gnome 3 kde 4 were epic failures).

So, indeed, I sometime stop being idealist and get pragmatic.

The reason I am dismissing proprietary product is probably because we have been building Wikipedia on top of free software stack for the last 11 years. I clearly remember someone being trolled out of an IRC channel just because he suggested to use some Java software, then non-free software.

It might change. But I would prefer having us sticking to FOSS.
