I’m more surprised that people are upset. I got cerberus maybe 8 years ago for a small sum of money (maybe $5) there is no way that’s sustainable. A service like this should be no less than $10 a year.
That said I do think the developers aren’t communicating well, which is leading to the upset customers. Seems like they should have said after some point they would be changing to yearly billing.
- eitland 7y agoI didn't expect $11 to be sustainable for pinboard either but as I hoped idlewords used the initial revenue and/or attention to bootstrap other recurring incomes. I get to keep my old account the way it was but if I decide to upgrade I have to pay which is reasonable since the service has been upgraded significantly.
- msh 7y agoI would say it is a clear case of false advertising. If it's bad business to honor their own promises that's the company's own problem.
- edude03 7y agoI agree it's false advertising, however often in these cases it becomes the users problem because if it's not sustainable then the company might be forced to go out of business which is likely worse than paying more for a product you like and use.
