> Funny people are willing to leave with just 1 text banner which you can turn off. I'm not interested in using ad-supported versions of products, period. Especially for work. I don't care what their other redeeming qualities are. Even just dipping their toe into the freemium/nagware world signals to me that they're moving away from shipping a professional grade product (ironic given that's what they're advertising). I don't buy into "what's the big deal" type arguments like the parent post. Same as I'd cancel netflix even if they just showed a 2 second ad before a movie. I want to be a customer, not a vehicle for advertising. The fact that this is an open source software project makes me even more sensitive to it, because I don't want to see OSS become some sort of scam that teases what companies really want to sell you.
