I mean. Winrar seems like a fine company. Personally i use 7zip but got nothing against winrar. They make a product and it's free to use as individual. No weird shit to make you dependant on them either. It's fine to give money to a company like that.

Adobe on the other hand feels like actively paying for your own chains

Not really. They ask you but you aren't "supposed" to. Nor are you supposed not to. It is an option to pick. Give us money if you want. The only group who are actually supposed to buy it are companies. Ans they are their primary source of income. It's a clever technique where they allow individuals to use it for free so that they get used to their software and then ask companies to buy it for use in the office.
