This also matches my comparison.

Maybe someone who makes the GIMP uses photoshop. I actively don't, and I recommend that others stop using it.
Maybe someone who delivers my food uses petroleum. I actively don't, and I recommend that others stop using it.

All these elements influence my decisions. If you want to continue promoting Adobe and Big Oil, that's on you.

How'd you computer get to your home? Did it walk?

My desktop was given to me by my job. My laptop, I rode a bicycle to my friends house and paid him cash. What does that have to do with my promotion of being Adobe free?

You really are hands-off on this petroleum situation. You've got no part in it. It's official. Everything in your life is a bike ride away and therefore didn't use petroleum to get to your locality and didn't take any to be manufactured. You won

Like, literally no one is stopping you from using Adobe stuff. No need to be salty, you do you. ✌
