No, they want to monopolize computing. And actually, yeah they do kind of have a monopoly on text editing, everyone who isn't a programmer uses Microsoft Word. Which they did by using EEE. You could import different formats into Word but good luck exporting it.
Let's not pretend a weekend hobby text editor is anywhere near the feature set of VSCode.
And yet every younger developer is encouraged and peer-pressured to use it.
And they bought github of course. MS has outsmarted (almost) everyone again.
