      Kinda pointless to unionize when it’s run by two brothers and there are, as far as I know, no other employees.

      Honestly didn’t stop me from donating, ultimately no one was fired and while it does sound scummy I have yet to see an alternative to Wikipedia that isn’t run by grifters or looneys.

    People who buy WinRar should consult with psychiatrist about their medication. WinRar is obsolete. We have better open-source alternatives for a decade or even longer.

      Yeah, this is why I stopped donating to them

      I donated to them for a few years, $20 a year, so not much. And then one year they sent me an email that was very clearly meant to guilt trip me into thinking I wasn’t donating enough to the platform. So I cancelled the contribution instead.

        Marketing people really love the smell of their own farts. They all feel like they are the smartest people ever.

        I bet the person who typed up that email was thinking “hell yeah, I fucking got those suckers right where I want em.”
