    God idk what version I’m even using. I never update programs like this unless I have to. From breaking things, to confusing my workflow and moving things around; I’ve always been more frustrated than thankful. I haven’t updated Reaper in ages too and I’m certain they’re better about keeping continuity than anyone.

    Edit: lol people are mad about my own software updating habits? why and how are .worlders this way? I can’t imagine the realities they live in, and am glad so

      You posted something that’s bad practice (for many reasons, including security). Like, nobody cared about your software habits until you posted them publically with no prompting. probably so you could act smug after getting downvoted.

      On the other hand, why did you feel the need to share this? Generally you are decreasing your security by this practice, and it’s not a good idea for others to adopt it. And no, you don’t need to understand security models and specific exploits for them to harm you

      If you scream into the void, sometimes, the void screams back. How is that surprising?

      Idk. I agree that it’s a bad practice, but I also don’t understand the downvotes. I think in this context it’s valid to share your preference whether to update or not. Maybe some people just click dislike because it has lots of dislikes? Who knows :)
