Oh you use plenty of closed source software in your daily life. The majority of software out there is closed source.
Edit: the applications you use on your desktop represent a very small portion of the software running in the world, including software that crosses your path on a daily basis and so 'software devlopment' is not synonymous with open source.
- flohofwoe 4y agoI edited my reply during your reply to clarify. But when I look at the tools and applications I use daily, there's only two important applications that are closed source: VSCode and Chrome (and even this is debatable because both of those tools are just thin wrappers around Chromium: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git).
- staunton 4y agoIndeed, I've had good experiences using Chromium and VSCodium instead, which simply don't include the closed source parts.
