in 1983, Richard Stallman started the free software movement. This is how we gained free access to core tools that we use every day including compilers, shells, debuggers, text editors, etc. Many of those tools were previously proprietary and closed source. Somehow we're regressing back to paid access for tools we rely on. People are being priced out of ownership and required to pay high subscription fees. Is this the future?
