There’s also a monopoly on Slack, Google Docs, Fortnite etc.

In fact by that ridiculous definition everything in life is a monopoly.

This is anti-trust (extreme abuse of the monopoly.)

Slack, Google Docs, and Fortnite don't force you to use their brand of computer to participate in group chats with your friends.

Slack and Google Docs even work on my pinephone.

If Google forced you to buy an Android if you wanted to use Google Docs with whatever group of people you need to work with you'd probably be upset too.
