\section{What makes Free Software so appealing to developers?}
+Free software is used by the majority of developers, and it can lead one to wonder why it is so preferred. The
+use of free software in developer spaces, as previously mentioned, has been because of people wanting to use
+tools they can tinker with, and because they are developers they already know how to do that.
+
+Most developers have pages hosted on websites like GitHub and source forge, where they post code they have written,
+this is in a sense creating free software, that can be viewed by anyone. The reason they do this, can be
+put up to a lot of things, but its mostly because they prefer free software. They prefer it for the same reasons
+previously mentioned; that it can make for easier to developer code, better code quality, and the more general
+philosophical points that can be made. Developers like to make their software open and free, because they believe
+it betters their work.
+
+The majority of developers also enjoy contributing, working on and with free software, all for the same reasons;
+it simply leads to nicer software for their use case, and because so many developers work with free software,
+a lot of it has become developer focused, contain features for them. Large amounts of free software is solely
+made for developers, by developers, for example IDE's that were spoken on earlier in this paper.
+
+Another point to note is why free software is \textbf{not} preferred by more general users. It is mostly for the
+same reasons, being made for and made by developers has made the space hard to enter for general users. It
+can seem overwhelming, or too complicated, with little gain at face value. As less general users uses Free
+Software, it is easier to single out that developers are the only people who use it. It is also worth pointing
+out yet again, that most people, even without trying use free software all the time, through common tools, like
+VLC, Notepad++, and through libraries that power the software they use.
+
+\subsection{Conclusions}
+Overall it is clear that developers prefer free software for the simple reason of it works better to their
+specific needs, because they tinker, make, and tune it as they want. This would not be possible on non free software
+as it simply is not designed to be modified beyond original use cases. It can also be seen that general users do
+not go out of their way to use free software on a main stream basis, as it currently doesn't follow their exact needs.
