    So, they’re finally trying to end the subscription subsidies. Presumably ahead of Q4 so that their financials will look better going into next year for the IPO.

      Going to be hard if you've lost all your customers due to your questionable behaviour.

      What a sad time. Pour one out.

      As someone paying for my own usage, the transition from a time of plenty, of eager happy use of my subscription, to begrudingly pulling the token-dispenser handle from the token machine, knowing each query costs me: this is a majorly sad transition to see happen. I thought we'd get at least a year of subscriptions being a joyous amazing thing, but no, already the hand that giveth doth taketh away.
