Free Yourself From Proprietary Software

in linux •  8 years ago 

If you want to free yourself from the shackles of proprietary software and the dozens of restrictions placed on the end user. Which can block certain types of viewable content right down to installing non proprietary software applications.

Then free yourself of those restrictions and stop paying out the nose for it too.

Don't forget to donate to the developer(s) seeing as they don't receive any support from big multinational corporations or wall street well maybe except Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Solaris.

Thank you! This is valuable information.

I use Linux Mint myself, but I've also used Slackware, Knoppix, Red Hat (before Fedora), and Yellow Dog Linux to name a few. Me and my brother once donated to the Free Software Foundation, and I donated a little to the Inkscape project once.

I used to not mind paying for Windows that much, but everything is so locked down now. You can't lend out a copy or transfer it to another computer. Also, I don't like how Microsoft basically rents its software now. Once you pay for software, it should be yours to use forever. I know that when I buy something, I don't alway get around to using it right away.

Great article!
