Myths about FOSS and non-FOSS Software
Responses and/or sayings about FOSS and non-FOSS software surrounding this post I made which I think are just false.
This journal will also be updated.
Please note that I'm not an expert or anything of the sort, so none of this is being said with any "I know this and you don't" mindset. Also, if any names are mentioned here, please do not go out your way to harass them. This post never was made to poke fun at or harm others.

Software is spyware if it's not open-source, even if it's free.
Oh yeah it's only the biggest lie ever said. The FOSS cultists want you to think that.
While there are some that may exist, free software that's not open-source is NOT spyware. If you think this, then consider the same to be said about free software that is open-source. What about the paid software that's either open-source or closed-source?
X is better than Y because X is free and open-source while Y is only free.
This is something I've seen Blender cultists say whenever they see any software
Doing away with posting art I want to post on DA
This might be the first brief talk post I'm making in the form of a journal.
By the way, if you came to this post just to accuse someone of being "ungrateful", then this is the wrong post for you.
Everyone always says "What is DeviantArt" but never ask "How is DeviantArt?". Based on what I've had to see multiple times without fail, I can see why nobody asks that.
It went from being a chill art platform to being Twitter 2.0 in the case of the millions of unemployed manchild drama and AI images people call "art", all of which I don't even want to see.
It's also become Tumblr 2.0 and YouTube in the case of pigeonholing where you will only get interaction if you post firearms. The worst part is that you have to grind your ass off with posting art that's not a firearm in order for people to even see it or interact with it, but God forbid you post one firearm sporadically every 60 years and do fuckall to make it intriguing to look at, and all of a sudden it becomes a hit.

Made this blueprint for @DiethylEther-Zero and SeoraCachu. I was gonna make a full-auto revolver, but I decided to make a blueprint instead.
Yes, all of my revolvers will have the non-revolver look to them (think Nerf Maverick) since I'm not really great at making a revolver without it looking weird as hell lmao
Why I [intentionally] don't complete prompt lists
The art is in fact relevant to what I'm going to mention below.
Figured I'd talk about this since the fall art challenge season is on. Hopefully other people may find this helpful in some way.
For 's previous goretober prompt list, I only did 5 of her/his 31 prompts.
For 's birthday prompt list, I only did 2 of his 31 prompts.
The reason for this is because some of the prompts they both have aren't clear enough for me to even try and make any art based around them. That and life sometimes gets in the way of me doing these prompt lists.
However, the real reason is that this is intentional. Yes. They're fun to do, but I don't want to finish them completely because I put myself first before these prompt lists, much like how I put IRL stuff before everything else. I intentionally don't finish these for the sake of my own physical health and mental health. It can be rewarding to try and complete a prompt list, but the only "prize" you get—which is the fun you've had—comes from just
