Well, there’s Libreddit. If you absolutely must browse reddit, consider using Libreddit instead. No interactions though (there’s lemmy for that :p).

just living, but sometimes it feels reality is rawdogging me though. But that’s just life.

There is this guide available for fitgirl and dodi repacks. Haven’t tried for dodi but fitgirl works for me, but process is pretty much same. Have fun

I haven’t personally experienced it. But have observed a discussion between product manager and engineer who had to put it. Seemed like regular business to him, he didn’t seem bothered at all.
I would think only people personally bothered by it might have any issue with it, they are rare.

My time is more valuable than money, but I still pirate. To me it’s not about money but principles.
If I pay for something and still can’t “own” it, I pirate.
If a generous portion of the money I pay isn’t going to the rightful individuals but to our corporate overlords, I pirate.
If my internet freedom is threatened, I pirate.

If someone pirates due to lack of money and one day they have enough, I suggest keep pirating and donate to FOSS and pay to individual creators.
