Proprietary is not some evil demon. Sure open source is better, but it's just one bullet point in a pro/con table.
It kind is, though. Proprietary doesn't mean paid; I'll pay for OSS apps. Proprietary means they won't release the source code, and this is bad for a whole bunch of reasons. But the reason that gets my goat is that it's almost guaranteed that proprietary app was developed with open source tools, and probably uses at least some open source code. I fucking hate hypocrites.
Deal breaker for people who care about Free software
There's a difference between caring and caring too much. I care about eating healthy. Doesn't mean I never eat anything unhealthy and immediately throw people who try to eat a sweet out of my third-floor window.
Not about throwing someone's off but doing it myself
