    I feel this. I’ve gotten shit for trying to get PDFs of obscure Shogi (japanese chess) materials. Like dude, i cant fucking pay rent rn i cant drop a 50 on a book. Its hard to keep up with any kind of hobby when you’re consistently paywalled out of improving.

        Yeah I’ve seen it happen in a few communities. My experience has always been someone trying to get a PDF/audio file of something and instant replies are “just buy it” like gee thanks i never wouldve thought of that and if you dare say something like “uhhh I’m broke” then the ant farm craniums will start going on and on about how the author/whoever is broke too because youre not buying their book/ etc 🙃🙃🙃

        nerds with fuck you money decide on who the “real fan” is

        This is such a dumb metric too because when you're poor it takes so much more dedication to get into a hobby
