Comment on why is EVERYTHINGGGGG behind a paywall?

I am a hobby photographer, and I am interested in some photo editing software, I heard great things about DoX Photo Lab, and wanted to check it out, I am not opposed to paying for software, if I get a perpetual license for a version, ok, they have that, looks good, so I try and find a trial version, ah, sweet they have that as well!
But I need to register to get access to download it…
Sigh…
Just allow me to get a trial version without registring, then I can decide later if I want it, I have bought several programs this way!
The only thing you will accomplish with forcing a registration on me in this case is a database full of temp emails…
STOP. DOING. THIS.

Hey you should look into darktable, it’s got a different learning curve from regular photo editing software but it’s really nice to use. Alternatively Rawtherapee is closer to lightroom in UX. Both FOSS
