I would be very obliged if top post / full quote were avoided.
I am extremely distracted by it, it clouds my already poor judgement.
Thank you. 8^)

It is already happening.

Sooner than later this problem will drop down on our collective
heads, some won't care and just take up Debian, some will care and
run to one of the *BSD out there but the vast majority ie: the common
everyday and *relatively* Linux savvy chap will-get-screwed.

Like I have mentioned before:

We must not lose sight of the fact that this is *not* happening
(primarily) to rid the Linux ecosystem of Devuan per se.

ie: it isn't about Debian wanting to kill Devuan, it is about Debian
being infiltrated and taken over by MS/IBM/RH.

Devuan (and derivatives) demise is just collateral damage.

Once Debian is infiltrated/absorbed by MS, the whole Linux ecosystem
will be doomed and MS will have achieved its goal.

Best,

A.
