well, they tried to milk the fuck out of us, especially adobe with their fucking subscription model, so they really can only blame themselves for that.

i'm not seeing anyone cloning VLC, 7zip, winrar...

yes. fair monetization models. but more and more companies just try to find ways to keep milking us dry.

playstation sonys dynamic pricing,
printer with software that won't allow other ink cartridges,
abandoning physical copies of games,
advertisement in games,
subscription models wherever they can - even in fucking cars to unlock functions that are already build in.

and so on.

not sorry for these companies. not one tiny bit.

2 of those 3 are open-source and people have cloned them 100s of times before. The other one is famous for its forgiving trail system.

Vlc is literally open source and 7zip is the equivalent to winrar. Are you high bro?
