I get that, but apparently they weren’t hitting that limit anyway. So is this a purely psychological tactic? That’s fascinating...kind of leveraging the psychology of an “unlimited” cellular plan but in reverse.
- danso 8y agoIt might be psychological on Flickr's end too, as developers no longer have to propose new features that have the requirement of scaling with a high-resource-consuming free tier.
- wrs 8y agoBut that's my point — how is the resource consumption changing if hardly anybody is kicked out? Is there a tiny number of people storing a terabyte of photos each? But if the number of people is tiny, how can that be affecting the community feeling?
- pkaye 8y agoThose few people who store petabytes of videos was enough for even Amazon to boot them off their storage product.
