When I was into computer art, I found that a lot of the free 3D models were as good as the paid ones. What free stuff do you find interesting? Of course, in the web development world there is tons of free stuff.

And yet you sneer at the notion of a new free forum software.For basic image editing.. Gimp rules.
It is rather a PITA to get certain custom filters installed if running other than Linux/Windows... but it is a handy and powerful open source (see @Arantor I actually do know what open source is and how it benefits people ) tool.
Once more... no, I don't "sneer"... I simply emphasize why try to re-invent the wheel in a niche that is declining when there are many better open source pursuits you could engage in... and probably some of them would be out of your normal "comfort zone" and would push/challenge you..And yet you sneer at the notion of a new free forum software.
Forum software is forum software... trying to call it something different because it is skinned/presented differently is simply sticking lipstick on a pig.Especially as I’d specifically proposed things that were explicitly not the same as your average forum software

I am so glad we don't have to pay for decent web browsers. That would be a nightmare if we did.There are several good free web browsers like Firefox.
Opera used to be paid. It was worth it at the time, and honestly I’d rather go back there if it were an option because I *strongly* dislike the current near monopoly Google has on ramming new tech through into the ecosystem.I am so glad we don't have to pay for decent web browsers.

It is almost like we went full circle just a different company with the stranglehold.Opera used to be paid.

”but there’s other browsers!” Yes, most of them powered by Chromium, i.e. Google.
And, effectively, a worse one. While MS’s stranglehold was effective for years, their damage was to effectively slow down development, not increase and increase the surface area of everything.It is almost like we went full circle just a different company with the stranglehold.
