No matter how much we search for free stuff, online or offline, there’s no such thing. Everything costs something. You pay for it with money or some other way. If it’s an offline free activity, maybe you pay with your time. And for everything available on the internet for free, you pay with your personal data, thus enabling targeted ads on your devices.
As a longtime iPhone and Mac user, I can access all of Apple’s software for “free”. Of course, I pay for the hardware and Apple services that I use frequently. And I pay again each time I upgrade my iPhone, Mac, and accessories.
