Which seas do you avoid?

Video games, because it’s easier to do it legally. If it was as easy for other media, I would do it that way.

  • On my mac, the little I pirate today is Microsoft office apps. Because fuck MS.
  • Most of the games I buy either from steam on sale, or cheap keys from g2a & co. I rarely get new games. I have little time for gaming, and have a backlog of games that could last me a couple of lifetimes already.
  • System utilities (firewall for instance) I buy
  • I go FOSS when I can.
  • Only thing I subscribed (and regret it, but the hassle to go rogue is just not worth it) is Adobe Lightroom Classic.
  • Last but not least, I pirated the hell out of the Nintendo Switch OLED though. Because Fuck Nintendo.
  • I’ve donated to indie devs for games I loved (whatever the platform, even if I ended up only playing them a bit).
  • I pirate TV shows and movies.

PC games. Too much of a worry about malware for that nonsense.

Software. 99% of the time there is some Free Software alternative that either somehow does the job for my personal tasks, or is better anyways.

Or you have to run a shady crack or keygen to get it to work, and I don’t trust those.
