i don't mind paying one time for the ads-free version of an app if it doesn't suck
$99 though holy shit man
The fact that there is an ad version at all as a UI front end to an ad free FOSS back-end is a bit shameful. People buy it because they want to get rid of the ads. If they just sold the software with no free with ad version then they would be acceptable.
It's not about the cost. It's the principle of the matter.
Exactly ! Its kinda attacking the foss philosophy
