Summary: For a number of years already we’ve noticed that Analytics India Mag was behaving like a Microsoft mouthpiece and thus we’ve mostly ignored it; it now openly admits working with Microsoft and the first two days of 2023 were spent viciously attacking GNU/Linux with low-grade propaganda, so watch out; it tries to discourage people in India, where GNU/Linux gained a lot lately (about 10% on desktops/laptops), from bringing us the next billion users along with millions of skilled programmers
