minus-squaregodless@latte.isnot.coffeelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years agoMeh, I couldn’t care less. Never used anything but the basic features, and if anyone wants to throw money at them, that’s their choice. As long as I’m not rate limited when using the regular chat in the free tier, I’m good.
