Comment on [META] Are paid for closer source advertising appropriate?
irmadlad@lemmy.world 15 hours ago Well, for one, I can actually scroll right by things I’m uninterested in. My mouse wheel goes by three row clicks. It doesn’t take all that much effort, even for this old geezer, to just whiz right on by. Even if it’s something I’m uninterested in, like the *arr stack in general, I can still be positive about it. It’s pretty fascinating to me how it all clicks together. But I have definite, hard coded opinions against piracy in general, no matter what your rationale is. I know some use the *arr stack for their own physical collections, but let’s be real…the vast amount of selfhosters that deploy the *arr stack are pirating.
why are you fighting so hard for it?
Because I honestly feel that the OP with the integrated, closed source app he asked if anyone wanted to beta test, acted in good faith.

Every comment you make makes me more and more convinced that you’ve created a throwaway account to advertise your own paid products here.
Now that is quite hilarious. What paid products am I advertising? I’m not a dev, and frankly I would never be a dev. For one, I’m not that well educated in the area of programming. Two, I wouldn’t be confident enough to release it to the public. Three, I wouldn’t put up with all the bellyaching that goes on, demanding that a dev do this or that with something he wrote. Hard pass.

Did I say you did so on this account?
Your long reply and bullshit about “bellyaching” isn’t helping me think otherwise.
OK you got me. I joined a year ago, made a fistful of accounts, just for this very day. Even though, if you rifle through all of my posts and comments, you’ll pretty much see, I have no programming skills and I have nothing to sell. But again, you are welcome to your own opinion.
I’m— sorry—I—used—too—many—sentences.
