A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.
This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

What else should they do? I am genuinely curious
Er i dunno just sell a purchase copy once? I know we live in an ultra capitalistic world full of extreme greed, people don't have to be cheerleaders for it. Especially when it's the leading art software company who have chosen to lock out a lot of creatives who can't afford it.
More complex videogame engine programs like Blender and Unity are free to use.
Last I heard, Unity has introduced substantial fees for developers.
Yeah developers. When you sell a game. Anyone can download it and use it. I'm not selling any photo on lightroom. I have no business, it's a hobby.
Videogame engines are different, but the principle remains to use basic unity it's free.
This is their students and hobbyists Unity on their website:
Latest version of the core Unity Platform
Free assets to accelerate projects
Resources to get started and learn Unity
Obviously I've heard about Unity recently charging obscene amounts but it revolves around sales. It doesn't cost anyone a penny to download Unity and make a game, once you try to put it on a console and sell it it's different.
You mean like capture one? Or do you mean you should have access to all future updates as well?
