I think they like to create strawman arguments like the privacy thing. These are probably the same people who use Tiktok but it's easier to blame MS. Most software "spies" on you.
I don't even remember the last time I got malware.
People who write malicious code only go for larger targets. That leaves out Apple and Linux.
The least secure devices are our phones.
These load slow....verified by the developer. Some of these come with grooves which I don't think existed in the older versions.
I have Europe and Asia
Tempted to buy another one of these not named harp
Who has some of the others -
Anti US. Anti MS - they never bash Apple.
They seem like people who are proud of the VAT, or wise fools
Wait till DAW developers not named Reaper stop supporting W10.

Welcome to the world of Linux fanboys. While they are techie they haven't a clue of the multimedia production world.
Downside is Kontakt 7 player. I still use 6 because it's easy on the eyes.
Downside - no direct download and you have to trust a working Native Asshat to download it. I had success (knock on wood)
I love the Modo Basses. I think they may be great at sample modeling. I'd rather see them go in this direction instead of the bloat that surpasses Soundpaint.
Someone gets it. That's why I buy the imperfect 8dio stuff. Player libraries are fine if you cant download direct instead of having multiple failed 80gb installs and get a warning from your ISP.
Unfortunately they are creating more enemies than friends. There are on the race down to zero Waves model.

Best summary of Asshat by the OP.
Eventually this is gonna have to cost them. Enshitification. They go the **** part right.
I do have my work arounds to get it to work. NTKDeemon does not uninstall correctly. I use the old Windows Cleanup Uninstaller. Watching it go through zillions of registry entries. Imagine if you had to do that manually. Add/Remove and Revo doesn't work for this.
