If you're using Chrome on Mac or Windows, just add
--user-agent="Linux"
as a command line parameter when starting the browser and you get 'You are running Linux. Well done! 25% discount applied!'
For Firefox you can use something like https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-rg/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-rg...
And don't forget to donate the saved money to a charity of your choice..
- humbledrone 15y agoYes, spread this around and encourage it, so that it becomes widespread enough that the vendor has to stop offering the discount for Linux users. Or, maybe you can convince them to switch to the much-less-convenient platform-specific versions.
- aychedee 15y agoTop tip: Start using Linux on commodity hardware. You'll save money, learn a lot more, and won't be such a support burden on small software companies. On the other hand, I think it's okay morally if you identify as a Linux user to this company's web site and get the discount AS LONG as you never make support requests.
- dools 15y agoI think anyone capable of doing this will display a lower support requirement anyway - problem solved ;)
