  • 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.
