I thought the same. That’s why I am on Proton which has a sufficient free tier (1GB). If I am not able to pay any of the higher tiers anymore, I can always fall back to the free one

Thanks, I'll check Proton out as I've seen it mentioned quite a lot. Just found out I'm going to be a dad at 47 so I've been a bit distracted!

Once they have grown, they can afford running consumer tiers at a loss and compensating this with other revenue streams - similar to what big tech is currently doing
