imho. (!) FOSS every time ...

even if its far worse than a comparable proprietary solution ... as long as it fits my use-case :))

but don't get me wrong: there are a lot of use-cases out there which are best solved with proprietary products - and that's absolutely ok ;))

and especially as a company i should pay in one form or another for either solution!!

as a private person this is optional for me: but no FOSS-project will reject a donation or an order of some of its merchandise - if available ;)

just my 0.02€
