E.g. when Microsoft was buying Bethesda and Activision, threads were full of people saying it was great, and those who said otherwise got a lot of hate for it.
I’ve seen people fanboying over Windows too
We see it with Tesla
We see it with Nvidia
Apple is the posterboy of megacorps that people simp for, but they are far from the only one
I think that was equal part MSFT simping and Bethesda/Activision hate. Bethesda hasn’t chosen to release anything comparable to Skyrim since 2011, and Activision is just a shitshow all around, especially with Blizzard. Market consolidation is never good, but when EA bought Westwood, I felt that something of value has been lost. Not the case with these acquisitions.
I absolutely do see people simp for Microsoft
