They are doing fantastic work. Millions of people around are using these software. No stolen data. No advertising bullshit.
I come from a low-income country. Europeans can afford to give much more.
Last year, the CEO of Adobe earned 40 million dollars. He only travels in an armored SUV with bodyguards. He has been described as ‘‘completely obsessed’’ about money and power. If he could get away with it, he would probably murder open source developers to send a message.
With extremely limited ressources, Inkscape, Krita, Gimp, Kdenlive are doing fantastic work, offering free alternatives to Adobe.
Please support open source software developers.
You don’t have to donate fortunes. Just adopt 1 software.
If I can do it, so can you.
