Episode 21: Free or Paid Software?

Collin & Brendan

Join the 1x devs as we dive into the eternal debate between free and paid software. We explore the hidden costs of "free" tools, when premium options are actually worth your hard-earned cash, and share our real-world experiences making these decisions in our developer lives. Whether you're trying to justify that expensive IDE to your boss or wondering if open-source alternatives can really compete, this episode has practical insights for developers at every budget level.
