I’ve done a lot of open source and don’t get where you’re going. What was repurposed exactly? Blocks? A deprecated service that nobody volunteered to take over, despite messages asking for that? Something else? Was it free before? Is it still free?

  I was answering to “you should be happy you’re getting anything at all”. That’s not a healthy perspective for anyone.

    Okay. You misquoted me but that’s alright. If you’ll address the actual point: What was repurposed? Was it free before? Is it free now?
