It's okay to be an evangelist for good technology.
It's okay to turn off a feature like motion smoothing on their TV where there's really no downside.
But going and changing the software they work with in a way that will affect their workflow materially is not cool. It's the kind of weird "I know better than you" consent violation we see all too often from people here on Mastodon.
(I've also heard of people switching out Windows for Linux and I hope those people enjoy their eternity in hell.)
