just because a lot of stuff on linux is open source, and free... doesnt mean everything has to be in fact, i think that "mindset" is what have sorta slowed the overall adoptability of linux. (well, probably not but.. if the users expect all stuff to be free, then why would a company like adobe move to linux?)

Hi. I don't really have the juice to explain rn, but you should look up both "open source" and "free software". Free as in $ isn't mandatory, but transparent/extensible is kinda the whole point and adobe can fuck right off
