Even though there are already a couple of other threads about this Schweinerei, there wasn't a good place to insert this into the discussion, and for those unfamiliar, this video's a good starting point.

What non-FOSS software have you been unable to quit?
For me, Google video search, Google books (Internet Archive is good, but doesn't always have the same stuff), Adobe InDesign (but in the process of learning LaTeX), and Typewise. As for the Google stuff, I liked Whoogle a lot, but almost all their instances seem to have been blocked or shut down. Also, apologies if this is...
Is there anything unsavory about ProtonMail?
For some reason I have it in the back of my mind that they were at one point accused of being a honeypot for US intelligence because of their association with MIT. Probably complete BS, but maybe not. Are they as open source as they claim to be? Looks like they're on github. F-Droid seems to think they have some Google libraries...

Trying to find the title of a book I read once...

Scribus Gets Huge Update (but the toolbar buttons are still too small to see!) ( www.omgubuntu.co.uk )
I want to like Scribus, but every time I hear about it getting updated, I download it, open it, only to find these tiny toolbar icons that have no apparent way of being made bigger. This is always what prevents me from trying it out! Seems like kind of a basic design no-brainer. Grrr. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm on...
