minus-squareLucidlethargy@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·1 year agoIt’s not “only” $17, it’s $17 every single year, indefinitely. In six years you’ll be over the $100 price it’s at now.

We don’t all have $100 we can just throw at a app whenever we like. Second, a cheap yearly subscription is not a big deal to some people, especially those that want to help the dev out. And thirdly, subscriptions are not scams unless you’re tricked into signing up for one.
