    Indeed, if the prices were reasonable this would not be a problem. I believe that the Apollo developer even said as much (or maybe it was rif’s developer - or neither and I’m just imagining it) - and I have no objection to it either, the servers aren’t free to run after all. But the rate the used? It’s just absolutely fucking incomprehensible.

    The shitty treatment of third party developers is just the unmentionable icing on this already disgusting cake.

      Even more so, the Apollo developer said he could probably have figured out a way to make it work at that price if he was given more time.

      The issue was that he already has a bunch of yearly subscriptions at a specific rate so he’d have to eat a loss of many millions of dollars until subscriptions at a new higher rate were a sufficient proportion of his user base.
