Can’t disagree with any of that! Though that said buying second hand also doesn’t support developers (Indie or otherwise) as none of that money goes to them. DRM absolutely needs to die in a fire. I don’t think there has been a single title that has actually been prevented from being pirated by it, all it does it make life hard for actual paying customers.
It’s a matter of opinions, really. IMO Indie devs deserve all the money they can earn, while big companies already earn billions and will live on no matter what and you could eventually need those 20-30 bucks you saved each time. And even if you won’t they’ll be better reinvested into projects like lemmy, to name one.
Also buying second-hand is always an eco-friendly choice, so there’s that too.
