  1. Magic Earth subscription increasing to $20/yr. That's a big jump. Not sure if I'm willing to do it. I don't use most of the "premium" features anyway #magicearth #osm #freemium

  5. Usually, when you have a #degoogled #Android #smartphone it means you can’t buy the premium versions of your apps. If you try, you get an error message about the missing Play Service. Every now and then an app might even crash.

    Yesterday, when I accidentally tried to use a premium feature of a #freemium app, I got the invite to subscribe and the usual error message. I selected cancel – and suddenly I was a ‘gold member’ for free. #oops 😅

  7. Шаровары: тогда и сейчас

    Wolfenstein 3D, одна из самых популярных шароварных игр начала 90-х В 90-е годы популярной моделью продажи программ была shareware (как их тогда называли, «шаровары»). Особенной популярностью она пользовалась у независимых разработчиков. Благодаря интернету они могли распространять свои программы без дополнительных затрат и накладных расходов. Всё работало очень просто. Написал полезную утилиту (например, архиватор или плеер) — и её могут купить тысячи людей. Если программа очень хорошая, станешь миллионером за несколько месяцев, как 18-летний Джастин Франкель с плеером Winamp. В принципе, эта модель работает и сейчас.

  8. @Vincent392 @n3m3s1s @Linux_Is_Best Well, I do myself do stick with @ubuntu as well since they are the only #Freemium #Enterprise #Linux Distro that doesn't want ne to cough up triple digits per year just for the privilegue of using their Software.

    Some people would do that for #macOS since they do #creative #work with that but for them it's like with people paying for #RHEL or #SLES / #SLED and those paxing for #Adobe's Crapware: It's a #BusinessExpense!
