This everything-as-a-service craze is a cancer that must be eradicated.
And I want the PMs that only worship the cult of yearly recurring revenue out of my industry for good.
If I buy a product, and that product cost me a lot as well, I want to be able to use that product however I like, for its intended lifetime, without having to pay for an extra subscription.
I honestly don’t give a single fuck about how you are supposed to make money after my purchase - you already made money THROUGH my purchase. If it’s not enough then I’d rather be charged $50 more for my purchase than paying $5/month forever.
