Their content sucks, and people are starting to cut ties, but don't pretend it's because people were upset they couldn't share their accounts. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) They lost subscribers and gained subscribers. The net total may have increased but they absolutely lost people from doing that. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Ottomateeverything@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) Okay. You could say that if three people left and 8 million could have signed up. It'd be factually true. So? The comment I replied to was claiming the price hike is because they lost subs because of the password changes. That implies the loss was big enough to reduce their income to the point they needed more. It's not. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 2 years ago I agree with you there. There could be negative repercussions involving the subscribers they did lose in the form of bad PR. permalink fedilink source parent
