    If it’s for software you like, yes. Lemmy apps are a great example of this.

    A lifetime license isn’t going to sustain the dev long term. If you like the app, buy a monthly subscription that gives them predictable income every month. Do a year if you feel confident about it. But honestly monthly is probably best.

    For shitty corporate apps like Adobe, pirate that shit.

      No. It is not the consumer’s job to support the software developers. It is the software developers’ job to develop a product that they can make a living on.
