Are you arguing that this kind of advertising is a good or neutral thingm. Or that life just kind of sucks and we need to get used to it? I'd rather push for better software and advertising practices, personally...
- therealdrag0 3y agoSeems neutral or good to me. Without advertising users don’t know a feature exists they want.
- 9dev 3y agoNeither, really. I hate ads as much as the next guy, but a) people seem to have no big problems with upselling in the myriad of other subscription services they use (at least I can’t remember regular ”outrage“), and b) a few subtle buttons in the UI that offer to buy an extension are hardly as atrocious as some people here act like. Life does kinda suck and we do need to get used to it, I guess. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t strive for a better world, but until we don’t have a working alternative to advertising, I’d rather have models like JetBrains than Adobe…
