"Heres your hourly reminder to rent worthless garbage we want you to pay monthy for, per server"
God forbid they offer goods and services in exchange for money
The market decides. And the market seems to have decided that their goods and services are not worth exchanging for money.
I pay for it.
The cost is worth the extra quality when working with others over screenshare etc. The community management features are useful. A large portion of my workflow is aided by discord and GitHub, both of whi h I pay for premium features.
I don't expect them to provide these services for free considering the huge boost they give to productivity. Expecting them to be free is naive.
