Remember, kids, if you buy a console, you enable closed ecosystems that won't allow you to use the software you want on the hardware you bought.
If everybody quit buying consoles, from day 1 all software vendors would be forced to provide their software on more open platforms. The same software would still be available if we boycott synchronously.
Synchronicity is and has always been the issue. If everyone decided to stop going to work today, we'd have a 4 day work week with decent pay by the end of the month.
Ye olde prisoner's dilemma.
The twentieth century has seen enormous progress in work conditions and it didn't spring forth from the bosses’ kindness. Coordinated effort is not trivial but it is possible and has bore fruit before.
Is the start to a pointless sentence.
You're preaching to PC gamer enthusiasts. The majority of normies see PC as too advanced and complicated. Most go looking for consoles. The console market isn't going down any times soon and devs can make plenty of money from this huge and very lucrative consumer.
Do check your stats, because PC as gaming platform surpassed consoles about a decade ago and the distance has been increasing since then.
I'm certainly biased, though. I bought the last console of my life a very long time ago.
