    It may snowball into other apps wanting it too? The first to take this step out of blue is asking to face some resistance. It’s natural. I’m surprised no one else is against them.

      So? Someone who can’t afford to build an app for free won’t do it if there is no demand for it. People building free open source apps will still do it. I really don’t get the problem…

        Other free services becoming for-profits and add-infested? Sync can set a trend others may follow. As they are first to do so, I’m surprised no one argues thst, as they may set up a degradation of every others’ experience with this platform.

          So is your argument that devs creating free apps are only doing so because they haven’t realized they could be charging money for it? Because if so, you live in another world than the rest of us, friend.
