You aren’t disagreeing with anything I said. It’s all very asterisk-y. And if my personal preference/position is unclear. I run non proprietary *nix systems at a 7:1 ratio to proprietary. Precisely because of the better support. Come October that ratio is going to be getting even more lopsided.
Not really. The software being proprietary turns support into a monopoly.
The support can still be better, but it will be despite the software being proprietary, not because of it.
(And by the way, single developers on their spare time create proprietary software too.)
