Example: I believe that IP is a direct contradiction of nature, sacrificing the advancement of humanity and the world for selfish gain, and therefore is sinful.

    Yesterday I got shit for supporting ZorinOS Pro. So I guess paying for FOSS.

    It seems donations are okay, but when distros frame it as a Pro Version purchase then the FOSS peeps get pissed. Even though no one could point out what’s actually being locked behind the pro version, because spoiler: nothing is locked behind it.

      Man, I’m all for paying people for the time and effort they put into software. But what’s the point of Zorin OS? Doesn’t seem better than other Linux-based OSs.

      On Lemmy, no one pays for anything but everyone makes a living wage.
