    I guess this is how I introduce myself to this community. I was once naive enough to purchase plugins from those instagram vst scam accounts that sell vsts and plugins at a cheaper price meanwhile all they're doing is leeching from sister site or wherever else and pray on people like me to sell plugins that are free to begin with!! Anyway I wanna thank y'all warez teams and the communities who put in the work to envision a world where all producers and music makers have equal tools and equal opportunities just to make the music we hear in our heads. How's quarantine life for yall?

    In fact it is not Instagram which is a cesspool, it is only the reflection of our society, or unscrupulous cheeky dare to resell the work of others, and naive people who buy what they offer without worrying about encourage them.

    There are still plenty of genuine creators and cool communities to connect with. Maybe try curating your feed a bit more or following hashtags that align with your interests.

    But let me share a different perspective. Once, I was struggling to get any traction on my music page. It was frustrating, to say the least. Then, I discovered this tool called GetLikes. It helped me organically grow my followers and connect with genuine fans who appreciated my work.

    That's why I call all that shit antisocial networks in the meantime

    Perhaps we will soon have to ask whether they are still societies at all - maybe its more like anarchistic kleptocracies.
    But careful now, its getting political :winker:

    Yeah. Sometimes a follow up isn't meaningless. In this case: It developed in a way we suspected it to do: much worse

    Those markets are big in places like South America, Asia and Africa. Basically, places where access to software through legal means is extremely difficult for the general public. If access and services were facilitated in such places, I doubt this market would be this big. Just look at Steam with their regional pricing. It's not that hard, it's just that it's convenient for companies to not address this issue... and if it's convenient for them to no care about the rest of the world, it's convenient for me and other people living in third world countries to keep pirating and selling their shit. Now I want to make clear that I'm extremely averse to the idea of selling cracks and I obviously don't do it and often argue with people that do but it's the kind of world we're living in. Ironically (or not) a good portion of the responsibility falls upon the very companies that actively spend resources "fighting" piracy (they're not very good at it) and with this commentary I wanted to make this evident: if you don't like people selling cracked VST in your feed then you should also dislike how most of those plugin companies operate.

    I delete Instagram = I'm better mentally.

    Only time i install it again is when i need to do another "boosted post" campaign.

    I hate that POS. Cancer, poison, evil, trash....you name it.
