>And I don't understand why you would write such a long rant about something that hasn't happened
It's happened so many times before that we're wary when we see it happening again. Please read what I said before responding to me you absolute waste of time.

Part of growing up is to understand that other people are unique and can't be blamed for what somebody else has done. A child will not understand this, because to him it is only "me and other people" that exists. Every company has to be blamed for the wrongs that some companies did, even the competitors. Every woman has to be blamed for the wrongs that some woman did in the past. Every person who disagrees with me on the internet is exactly the same person who has mistreated me in the past, they make me sick. And so on.
It's the easiest thing in the world to be distrustful. You're never going to be wrong, because you'll never take that risk and you'll effectively repel all people who don't like to be treated as if they were dishonest or be insulted at random. But what kind of people will you be left with?

Alright, now that you've got your big boy pants on, I have a bridge to sell you.
I'm happy to pay for quality software, both professional and consumer. With Affinity it took exactly one project to recoup much more than the cost ($50) of the software, and I expect that to be true for 99% of graphics professionals.

Yeah, and then I'll laugh my ass off at them. It's like me writing that anybody who reads this comment owes me a hundred dollars. Now you read it, now you pay. Or not.
