> I can’t reimplement it in $30 of tokens or $30 of my time. Probably not. I also paid for FreeFileSync (the donation version) instead of rolling my own local backups (across drives), as well as MobaXTerm because I really like their UI/UX and so on. Software that others have developed and supported for multiple years, which has been already tested by a lot of folks thoroughly across their usecases is probably a good
As well as auto closed captioning, and commenting, and automatically cutting out filler words and empty silent portions, and auto summarization of the contents, and many other features that I use all the time and find useful. But that’s fine, OP probably just doesn’t use that stuff.
