Wouldn’t these subreddits just immediately pop up elsewhere. For example, if r/pics was paid, what’s to stop someone from creating r/picsfree?

Pretty much DOA due to bad software adaptation and a prohibitive price tag. The marketing department also missed the massive opportunity to market this as a DS emulator (likely due to concern over Nintendo lawsuits).

Honestly, carrying around a usb drive is generally a pretty good idea. I carry one with several ISOs so I can rescue a machine if something happens and I am unable to fix it (and also show people what modern Linux has to offer).

This is something I carry pretty much anywhere I take my computer, and would recommend to most people. Sure, I could leave it at home, but if I have to meet a deadline, I don’t want to spend the extra hour driving to my house. It’s a worst case scenario kind of thing, but it pays off considering how little effort takes.

Not to mention that it’s a subscription rather than a single payment.

TUBES!

Was going to say this. Pycharm is probably the only paid software I use. With that being said, students don’t need to pay for it, so I don’t have to worry about that.

“So I decided YES”

I feel like your negative opinion of censorship is so strong that it overpowers your morality. Would you let a serial killer walk around shouting that we should kill everyone just for the sake of preventing censorship, or would you insist they’re locked up? See, even you have your limit.

Its a less extreme example, but the same logic applies here. We shouldn’t just let misogyny grow for the sake of ‘freedom’. That’s how you end up with stuff like the Nazis. Classic bystander mentality.
