koberulz,

@kepano Not quite the same thing but on the subject of devaluing things there was a guy on the Blu-ray.com forums a couple of weeks ago absolutely outraged that Barbie wasn't available to stream for free yet, convinced Warners was completely incompetent by only having it available to purchase in exchange for money.

FabianDonatus,

@kepano This!
It drives me mad how all of my friends and family are immediately appalled when they hear some piece of software I show them costs money 🤯
Most mainstream people are completely detached from what it actually means to create these things because they are so used to Google and others producing similar things for free 🤷‍♂️

Atkinsmatt10,

@kepano any examples you want to give a shout out too?

@kepano Was finally going through some of your previous blog posts (I had mainly been bookmarking them to read later, but I already assumed I'd agree with them).

I also started buying Darn Though socks recently, I've not had them for too longer, but they are really comfortable. And as you mentioned: last a long time plus they have a lifetime guarantee on normal wear and tear.

@kepano

They sure do!

xl8freelancer,

@kepano not just quality software. Anything that is of "above industrial" quality should be paid for accordingly, is my guess.
