It’s a tool. You use the best tool available. Getting your day job done is your bottom line, you can’t afford to be any less productive. If you’re a foss coder doing it on your own time, go crazy. Using the most efficient tool isn’t the same thing as supporting a company’s bad practices, the real world isn’t black and white.
That’s a bit black and white of you, isn’t it? I don’t like this approach (“can’t afford to be any less productive”).
I am a freelancer and I certainly can afford to be a bit less productive and earn a little less money by supporting and using free software only. And making you belive that you have to use the most efficient tool - no matter what - is exactly part of what keeps bad acting companies successful.
