As an autistic person I can promise you: Windows does not represent us.
KDE on the other hand...
I think you accidentally a word.
As a South African I just have to say... You gave him citizenship no backsies!
You're down for poisoning the well?
So was the herbalist.
Give it a few billion years.
So Kubuntu then?
While I'm all for making it harder to just sit on housing, the "more empty homes than homeless" this, while technically true, is very misleading, and I wouldn't want to try to force unhoused folks into the empty homes without a lot more pruning.
In-demand places don't typically have much in the way of empty homes, as it doesn't typically make financial sense not to rent them out. Empty homes in places like this are generally in between tenants or on the market to be sold. Meanwhile, there are places with huge numbers of empty homes, typically because of population drain. The homes sit empty not because someone's hoarding them, but because people don't want to move to places like Cairo, Illinois.
The statistic, whilst technically true, doesn't take into account demographic and population changes. People want to live in places with vibrant economies and lots of job opportunities, and that's not typically where the huge supply of empty homes is. So we can't just redistribute our way out of this problem. Building, and especially infill in cities, is absolutely necessary in huge quantities.
The two I was specifically thinking about are SuSE and Canonical. There's also Collabora and Nextcloud in the productivity systems space and plenty of others.
To expand on point 2, Europe is already home to two major competitors to Windows (one headquartered within the EU) as well as competitors in other fields, so they would also have an easier time (as a bloc) than many other places, who don't have local competitors I nearly as good a position.
Finally I've found someone whose hands match my stomach!
