Who really pay for Adobe pdf suite ?

Really I can find many open source solution that can edit PDF, even OCR the PDF for free (you might need to run OCR engine with your CPU, or pay for OCR service)

I think, because Corp. In Corp, they want someone to be in charge, and take reponsible when something mess up. It is easy for IT to proposed to buy a solution, because the vendor take responsible for mess up, rather than use open-source and have to fix bug themselves.

There are also case where developer push malware into open-source.

This is another example, corp pay to use open source (tidelift.com). They are paying to have someone to cover them if something mess up, like a reliable mantainer.

So i think that why corp still pay for pdf solution, e-signing and stuff like that rather than implement from open source solution.

Will people be sued if they release open-source mod, homebrew on github ?

that also mean old stuff do not get update too.

And because nowaday everything is locked (walled garden is the term you need google for) , it is unlikely the device will be useable in few year. Unlike a computer, you can install anything on it.

Reddit official website and app are slow, click took 1-2 sec to load. Scrolling to the end it pause like 5 second to load more content. I don’t know why, it feel like they do it on purpose.

When I use 3rd UI back then, thing was blazing fast, whether it is on chrome PC or on my old android phone.

I think it is too keep the ads on your screen a bit longer before you scroll pass it.

I have seen an Chinese novel have long title, like “A Record of a Mortal’s Journey to Immortality”. But the author was not make long title on purpose, as original title have only 4 words. Because there is no single word in English with rich meaning as it is Chinese , so they have to describe it out.
