“ demanding we convert and rely on donations”
People whining for more is fairly normal. Wanting it for everyone in perpetuity is new.
Does everyone think most businesses are somehow ad supported?
- dataflow 6y ago> Does everyone think most businesses are somehow ad supported? Not necessarily ads, but they might assume most businesses will monetize whatever info they get their hands on however they can. Especially so for free offerings ("you are the product" etc.).
- ben509 6y agoThe "you are the product" assumption alone is probably the strongest reason to never offer a free service.
- phkahler 6y agoHaving all that "free" shit in app stores doesn't help. I wish Apple and Google would require apps to charge some minimum.
- dspillett 6y ago> Wanting it for everyone in perpetuity is new. Nah, that behaviour has been around since before this millennium. They don't actual want it for everybody but they think they might get a better response if they look less self oriented. "do what I want/need, not just for me you understand, but for the community"
