My old person trait is that I think ‘ghosting’ is completely unacceptable and you owe the other person a face-to-face conversation.

    I love software like Lightburn where you just pay a set amount for so many years of updates and support and when it runs out you can choose to leave it like that or buy more updates and support for a smaller fee.

      That tactic is used some companies I have stuff from. It’s on the razors fucking edge of acceptable to me.

        You just want free support for ever? Lmao, that’s very unreasonable.

          You make this sound like it’s unreasonable, but literally most consumer software licenses work like this?

            They do not, you either pay monthly or for a permanent license with x amount of support

              I’ve got consumer software from hundreds, maybe even a thousand companies, and only a few of them work like that.
