You mean the schuckster trying to make a buck using another free API after the last one booted him out? Guy's a slimeball.
What a genuinely unhinged take.
You're not paying for the API, you're paying for the dev time.
A slimeball for having an optional charge for a product they have made and have input their own time and skills into?
That's a hot take, it's still a shit take, but hot as well
Don't forget that he added ads into the app for a platform that doesn't have ads and then is selling the option to remove them.
Exactly. That's his m.o., find a free content farm and charge people to access it. And yet people eat it up, which is insane.
It's blowing my mind that people on here are happy to throw $100+ at a mobile app to access a free website that has multiple free and very good apps, especially when the app they're paying for is inserting ads into the experience to make people pay to remove the ads.
