It’s painful to see every premium, service, and subscription in my life increase on a yearly basis, but even the thought of raising prices of our own apps and subscriptions make me feel like a criminal (not to mention super risky for a tiny company to do). So here I am feeling like the value of my dollar just continues to decrease.

(Just a thought as I get an email from YouTube premium saying my sub price is increasing next month.)

@mark I’ve gotten at least three emails from Linea Sketch users in the past few weeks asking why their old previous purchase couldn’t be restored. All of these users bought the app when it first was released back in 2017 for $7. We switched to a subscription in 2021 because we couldn’t afford to give free app updates for life.

I’ll let you guess how these conversations went. I feel ya.

@gedeonm @mark contrary, Linea is single app my daughter uses on iPad. Hence I pay monthly subscription, because it’s more expensive than yearly plan, just to express my gratitude for your work.

@acejacek @mark Can’t say thank you enough for your kindness and support. Without users like yourself we woulda been gone long long ago. Thank you. 🖖
