    Bruh what? Did you really just say that not having to buy software exclusive to a certain hardware makes the software free?

    That’s like saying the OS on a PlayStation is free because you only had to pay for the PlayStation.

    Nah man, you purchased the OS with the hardware. That’s why it’s exclusive.

      No, I said your argument is ridiculous. So is this one you just made.

      It’s not like either of those things.

      macOS is free. Just because it requires a computer to run doesn’t mean it isn’t free. That’s the worst rationalization. I’ve heard yet.
