I believe that it is free for non-commercial purposes.

But that doesn’t make it free software. Free software is free as in freedpm, not free as in price.

Well, it’s free to me, but whatever…

Yes, but that is not what free software means.

Feel free to define it any way you want, but if I am permitted to download it and use it without payment, it’s free, my man.

I’m not just making up a definition here. It is a well established definion.

Word you are looking for is freeware or freemium.

No doubt you are correct in a technical sense, but to a ordinary man in the street, free be free.
