That’s for lifetime. Or you could pay five bucks a month for it. It’s been quite impressive, as a person who just uses the service. Tried it on the free tier liked it enough to start ponying up.
Lifetime of the product, not the user. It’s a scam.
All subscriptions are for the lifetime of the product, aren’t they? It’s like Plex Pass; pay monthly/yearly or buy the lifetime and hope they don’t bankrupt out. But if you like a product like that, there’s only a few options, and it seems like they’re trying to stay afloat and still make a relatively open product.
~~And there’s always the free tier for personal use, which seems to have been glossed over.~~ (was thinking of a different product with tail in its name
If they kill that product then release a newer version of the exact same thing and pretend it’s a different product, that lifetime license won’t carry over.
