You've pretty much described a subscription, with the difference that you expect that whatever you have already still works and that you completely ignore the problem of support. We can pretend it will work for a while, but I do not think this is realistic. Support is not something you can ignore: people will request support, post negative reviews and opinions, and you will need to deal with that. My point is that we should all stop pretending and just accept that apps cannot be used without regular maintenance anymore.
