Big tech platforms now make a big turn from 'free to use' to 'pay for everything now'
And even if you don't pay directly on those platforms you will pay with your personal data
API's are now becoming a paid feature so many devs drop support for them since it's not doable anymore
I totally understand that things are need to be paid for at the end of the day but it also feels super toxic to see that "free-to-use" is almost become a no-go for them
Why so extreme.. 🙄
