    I don’t play games and I don’t use expensive software (ok, beside Windows and Office). Mostly I don’t use my computer when I am not at work. I have other hobbies and I have enough of computer at work (I am a software developer). I only pirate movies and tv shows. I don’t even pirate music. I just use YouTube music, with turkish family account (it’s the cheapest, around 1,20€ - 1,80€ per month for 6 accounts). I was using Netflix, but since they started blocking account sharing I stopped using Netflix. It’s too pricey for how much I watch movies and tv shows. For Windows I usually download iso from microsoft, and find activator on mydigitallife forum. If I need to download some software (like Office for example) from some torrent tracker, I am lucky we have local private tracker that is known and used by whole country.

      I don’t even use Microsoft Office anymore after the last Medusa bug in msdt that compromised computers without opening the virus files. LibreOffice ftw. I miss nothing. Much safer.

        When I’m on Linux (most of the time), I’m using Libre Office, but sometimes I have to open some word document in Microsoft Office, because Libre Office don’t open it correctly.

          All files open OK for me on libre office so far.

          Also there’s office online, btw, for emergencies.
