This is Business 101. You establish a product or service, get a customer base, trade off the low-paying customers for high-paying customers. I don’t know why this is offensive or mysterious, did it when I fixed PCs on the side. Low paying customers were a pain in the ass, biggest complainers, had the most issues, cost me overhead and time. Wanted to help them, couldn’t afford to. Bigger businesses have already figured this out.
The mystery is why so many are happily paying for this bullshit.
Posted on Nextdoor.com how the Trump admin was slashing NOAA and how that was serious for us on the Gulf Coast.
“Don’t care! I can pay for my AccuWeather app you filthy liberal!”
“And where do you think they get their data?”
“Not talking to ignorant toddlers!”
<somewhat paraphrased, but that what the gist of the conversation. Also got made fun of for bringing up Project 2025. “FAKE!”>
Point being, I had no idea anyone was dumb enough to pay for a weather app. Imma stump for Weawow on Android. Free, works for me. You can pay for bells and whistles, works great without. Only thing I’d want is tides, can’t expect that from a free app. 🤷🏻
