1 year ago I made an important document using a 30 days trial of a #proprietary #software. Today I had to update the document. I could have bought the proprietary software for 75€, but instead I’ve tested #Inkscape for the first time in my life. Inkscape has ingested a #PDF version of my original document and allowed me to update it. Bonus, the exported PDF size is only a tenth of what the other software produced.
So I’ve just donated 75$ to Inkscape via Software Freedom Conservancy.
