@idlewords, I renewed for a year, having signed up in 2014. For me, it's an essential service.
I didn't receive any email about this; the most recent message I have is a password reset in 2017.
Aren't the deep discounts for multi-year renewal tantamount to recapitulating the problem with the original one-time sign up fee? i.e., having to run the service with no recurring revenue.
- idlewords 6y agoYou should see an invoice for it on the site. I don't email out receipts, but maybe I should start. The discounts are still two orders of magnitude more than what people were paying for 10 years of service before, so I don't feel particularly stuck in the same problem. And it will be a nice surprise for me in 2031.
- getpost 6y agoI have the PayPal receipt. I meant, I didn't receive the email sent to old-timers. I figured you might want to know in case this was an oversight, and there are old-timers you intended to contact, but didn't.
- idlewords 6y agoOh, I see. I'd been doing it piecemeal in batches of fifty or so so I have time to reply to people individually. Did not expect it to become A Thing.
