Fair points.

One thing I think we all miss: what happens when an overzealous government makes something a crime retroactively? Say, um, disparaging two Cheetos in an ill fitting suit masquerading as a world leader.

That’s part of why we should care about privacy and why we should care when data we expect to be private isn’t.

Most tech users are victims in a system they don’t understand. We might complain that they don’t want to understand but the truth is the providers don’t want them to understand - as it’s easier to sell them whatever crap they’re shilling.

Scummy landlord’s gonna scummy landlord.

Afinity Publisher is a good, affordable and a solid replacement for InDesign, at the price of MS Publisher.

We switched away from Creative Suite during one of the many “Adobe overstepping” debacles and haven’t looked back. Publisher 2 has felt like a drop in replacement for most documents/posters/newsletters/flyers etc.

I’m suggesting Afinity publisher because if you’re using ms publisher you don’t have qualms with closed source software and probably value some of the workflow niceties that come with commercially supported software.
