I did both in the past.
And promptly lost the RAR license.

And not feeling so great about wikimedias recent organizational actions.

The world is complicated

    It's so crazy to me that a non profit is anti union. Like, I know we live in a capitalist dystopia but I guess I didn't think it was that bad.

    The issue with wikipedia goes more than this when the realisation hits that some pages are extremely biased with whole sections relying on a singular reference. Its a non profit alright, but it has its share of gatekeepers that lean on serving factually incorrect info or even commonly accepted but incorrect info.

    WinRAR got what they needed. You did good.

    Wikimedia... Hindsight is a bitch, you either live life not helping places that need it or take chances on helping people you don't know are assholes.

    TBF, organizational actions aside, they made a thing, it's pretty damned useful, you can download the thing and keep it forever. I've donated to causes that have done less for me.
