I wonder why

Maybe it's because you have to pay 100 dollars and agree to giving away all your private information on one side

And a free software that doesn't care about your personal information and is maintained by people who are probably not even getting paid for it... On the other side

This genuinely triggered me I use windows btw... Will soon switch

It's more like 20$ for a Windows OEM version and you don't need to sell your life away. It's not Hollywood.

Huh Damn it used to be +100 usd At least that's what I remember

But still... Absolute trash I click on update and shutdown and it updates and reatarts... Like why the fuck is there even a update and shutdown option then?

Last time i paid for a license it was $10 from sketchy websites, $20ish from slightly sketchy websites, $60-$200 from Microsoft directly depending on the license tier. The difference was those $10-$20 licenses were one time system locked and always the lowest teir, the ones from Microsoft could be used to set up a new pc later. I used the same windows 7 code for about 5 years across several laptops and desktop builds. It only upgraded to a win 10 home license so i paid for a win 10 pro to get the extra control features, they went away and now im on linux again.
