It's your opinion that the service is worth the price; I know nobody who shares that opinion. Sharing an alternative shouldn't be seen as hostile or "wild". If it was like a buck a month, I'd pay that. But at checks notes $3/month for increased upload size (I have a nas with public file sharing, so..) and.. emoji? or $10/month for the above + "super reactions" (wat), not-ass streaming res, "server boosts" (???) and "custom profiles" (what does that even mean? a background?)... You're kidding me, right? I pay less for my web hosting, or my vps, my security/AV software... Even Bitwarden, or NextDNS, is pennies compared to nitro. Ten bucks a month is actually insane from my perspective. $120 a year for bigger uploads and decent streaming resolution is highway robbery.

To use your term: wild.

Yes, I said it was my opinion.
