Like, why dont people who can just move?

Kind of a catch-22.

America is the best country in the world, if you’re rich. Once someones earning a lot and saved up move to New Zealand money the appeal isn’t as strong for most.

immediately go for northern europe

Oof. That’s akin to moving there in 1938. Bit of a risky proposition to say the least.

I wouldn’t move there now if allowed and I don’t even have illegally move to Mexico money.

I remember when I did the switch in 2008 and never looked back.

I wasn’t far behind you. My first laptop around that time came with Vista installed. Didn’t take long for me to switch Ubuntu after that, haven’t been back to Windows since.

I’ve gone a step further. I deleted comments and sold my reddit account.

Now my decade old account is being used by someone who wants to game reddit in some way.

Have fun with that spez.
