Don't pirate indie games and small projects though. They usually deserve the money.

Usually yeah. I still pirate them but use it as an extended demo. Still more than 80% of those I drop in less than a couple hours and never play again. Then I'm just happy I didn't pay for them. Others though like Factorio and Stardew valley I had to buy after pirating. They were just to good not to own.

I don't, but I definitely don't think it would be wrong to. IP is an illegitimate idea, and has just as much legitimacy imo as a stranger telling me I'm obligated to pay them to breathe near them. I pay for some games as a donation, not a purchase.
