Biggest personal examples are Minecraft and FL Studio. I asked my parents to buy Minecraft for me after a week of pirating it, and I bought an FL Studio license when I could afford to, nearly a decade after I first used it. I don't use it much, but it felt right.

"teach them Chinese because they live in china"

1. Chinese isn't a language

2. Oh, let's just go and force all Indians to speak Hindi, I'm sure the entire south of the country would be okay with giving up their mother tongues for Hindi.

This "one language, one country" thing is deranged white thought

AMD 5600 XT btw

Can't afford to do that whenever I want 🥲

I still browse Reddit about as much as Lemmy, because many communities haven't taken off here yet.
