@chirpbirb@meow.social I think that goes even beyond free software, just ask windows or adobe users who might've paid for it, paying the creators

@chirpbirb@meow.social Oof. This is a tricky one. Provided there's no other software that fits the same niche/use case, then no. Otherwise... it becomes a "maybe no". edit: and if it's just straight up bad software, then it's a yes

@chirpbirb@meow.social for the record I do not fully endorse the person and beliefs behind Windows XP Hanna Montana Edition, whoever and whatever they are
