I am happy to pay for a service I’m using and getting value from if the price is fair, and if they can find a model where it’s sustainable with some % paid and some still free so that it’s available to everyone, and do that without ads or data scraping or treating users as a commodity I think that’s as close as we’ll get to tech utopia.
The “users are the product” tech model needs to die. We will need to start paying for our stuff. But I think that will create a better internet.
Fully agree with this. I’d rather pay for the things I use and get a good product.
