It never lost quality. House M.D. is still in my top 3 favourite shows.

Conveniently excluding Vivaldi browser.
Constructive criticism is invaluable, so thank you. This point has been brought up multiple times by now, therefore I'm thinking of a way to incorporate it into the text. For starters a link to this Lemmy thread has already been included.
I don't really give a damn about why
That's a slippery slope into bigotry, dogma. It should be possible to understand another perspective without necessarily agreeing with it. Unwillingness to listen limits the pathways to finding solutions.
As aforementioned, I think the majority of the software listed does not clash with the FSF definition of freedom. Unless I started shilling Zuckerberg products I don't think it detracts from the point I'm trying to make.
User @QuazarOmega already pointed this out, it depends on the definition of free, of which I'm positive the majority of my list complies with. Moreover, I did apologise for including Spotify, and offer alternatives:
“Despite their free version forcing ads, the paid version is too convenient, sorry. However, their UXD has become more annoying so I'm not sure how long I'll stick… If cross platform functionality isn't a big deal for you then consider Tidal which pays artists significantly more [5], or BeatSense for simple YouTube playlists and listening together.”
If there are better alternatives—to anything really—please share them instead.
Regarding Vivaldi: Why isn’t Vivaldi browser open-source?
Lastly, about Mega and Telegram, I added “breaks rule 3” to their listing. Mega is just remarkably convenient too, and unless the populace suddenly turns geek and they find out about the Matrix protocol, I'd prefer they use Telegram en masse instead of WhatsApp.
The article does indirectly mention core-js within source “31. b. Explain xkcd: 2347: Dependency.”
But yeah, the status-quo is quite sad indeed.
Glad you enjoyed it, and your interaction is appreciated; I'm not immune to blunders so that's why I asked.
Indeed, hence: “Support the people whose products you love when possible or fight corporate tax avoidance”.
Moreover, giving software a shout-out, a good review, reporting bugs, or contributing to its forum is also a significant method of support.
Ideally both. However, is “many” the correct word? How many proprietary applications did you count? And I'm not being ironic/sarcastic.
