> I did not make this change retroactive, since that felt like going back on a promise. [...] I have noticed this has created some feelings of annoyance in the paying group, odd expectations in the one-time group, and a general confusion about pricing policy. These two things seem difficult to reconcile. I wonder why Maciej is taking the "ask people to voluntarily convert" approach rather than the fairly typical "new features will only be available to paid subscribers" "carrot" approach, which may cause some annoyance for one-time payers, but is probably still more generally in line with people's sense of fairness. Perhaps because he needs the funding to develop those features in the first place.
