I hate subscription models. After adobe, never again.

I'd never subscribe to Adobe. I love Figma, but if Abobe takes over Figma and applies it's usual tactics, I'm never using Figma again.

I did, because it was convenient. But I learned my lesson, it was quite expensive.

I’m fine with subscription models for audio and video, since the goal is a continuous flow of new entertainment

Not for software. I want to own my software. These days it’s mostly operate since so many are too difficult to own (you want me to subscribe to Office? LoL, I “own” LibreOffice)
