Honestly I think the “Microsoft is evil” is clearly ignoring the engineers who work for Microsoft who actually do like open source and pressured the company to allow them to participate.
All of the things we hate about Microsoft we’re clearly executive decisions that overruled what the engineers wanted.
I think people are also overlooking that younger generations are also more open to “sharing” and ideas behind open source, historically older generations would hold on to knowledge where possible to secure their position.
I like that people these days are making things just for the joy of making things that other people find useful.

I don’t think it’s entirely the younger generation.
The internet itself is what has enabled the FOSS movement to organize, take a stand, and share.
