@MadrePappagallo@cowanon >Torrent the old cracked versions without the gay shit. Why would you allow yourself to format your muscle memory to the proprietary software ? It only encourages "work standard" fallacy while it's obvious people have to finance free/libre software like GIMP and the like to stop the abuse.
I'll also add that it's quite a paradox that people want already finished free/libre software when they don't help the creators making a living out of their work. But I guess that's a consequence of proprietary software being distributed non legally and also proprietary software distributing as if it were freeware.
@mangeurdenuage@MadrePappagallo@cowanon the work standard fallacy: being able to draw a circle in one click-drag action instead of four separate actions in GIMP
@Zergling_man@MadrePappagallo@cowanon Software that works just works, you can deny that, the issue is when the software is a Trojan horse into people psyche by imposing feudal economical models for example and many others, like for example the ability to emulate the omnipotence/omnipresence of god without being about to counter it etc... That's something that is almost nullified with free/libre software. It just allows the free market to exist.
This right here is what eventually empowered bill gates into doing all kinds of nefarious shit after everyone got "addicted" to microshit winders; if we all started using Linux in 1995 gates wouldn't personally own almost all the farmland in the USA for one thing.
