They might put it at 20% off maybe

I bought it and runs and looks great - only thing is, I got bored about 1/3 of the way in - its very repetitive.

Much prefer to use FOSS where I can.

Most people absoljutely do not 'need' photoshop or MS Office, but are too lazy to try out free alternatives. Sure they don't offer 100% of the features, but for most home users they are more than enough What are people using Word for at home anyway? Creating a CV once every few years - its not like they are knocking out documents day after day.

Yeah but most of them *haven't *learned - how to search, how to follow instructions, how to read, how to seed, how to install and adblocker, how not to get malware....

because idiots need somewhere to ask 'what exactly is seeding' for the 100th time

Well, the sub had gone downhill recently anyway - endless memes or posts about 'what is seeding' 'what is a vpn' 'what is plex' or just idiots who got an ISP notice and think it means they are going to jail.

This is silly - the delivery medium is irrelevant.

VPNs create enough friction for authorities to stop them

Its not 'authorities' you are hiding from when pirating, its just copyright trolls. All they do is scrape IP addresses from torrenst and automatically send a notice to the relevant ISP. If that IP belongs to a VPN provider, the compaint will never reach you.

Exactly - snd yet people still claim their 'VPN ratted them out' - it didn't - it might hve failed, or the user never turned it on, but the VPN provider didn't get a copyright notice from Disney and forward it an ISP.
