          Reworded: Think of all the resources spent on making sure people don’t steal the software you paid to make.

          I’m all for open source software. But if a company spends money paying employees, they need to not go out of business.

          Now, do I think they overcharge? Yes. Do I think their subscription model is offensive? Yes. Are there other alternatives: Affinity Photo, you pay once for the version. Yours forever.
