Nobody cares and it doesn’t matter at all, but I used to be a prolific pirate when I was a teenager and in my early 20s. As I got older and had more money, I started paying for everything. I wanted to support and pay for the things that I liked. Over time, entertainment has become so costly and so inconvenient, and older media is harder and harder to access, so I threw up my hands and started pirating again. Not everything, I still pay for games and a streaming service or two, but I’m back to piracy all the same.
Been a developer for 20 years and the temptation to quit and be a stay-at-home Dad is really tempting if it was at all financially viable.
