I'm a fan of Flickr, and for me the community is the reason I upload my photos there. If this makes Flickr sustainable and lets the team invest in improving the product and fostering the community, I think it's a great move. Plus, seeing highly curated feeds is what people want, not just a dumping ground for every frame in your roll/SD card.

Yeah, same here. I was fairly active on it > 10 years ago but haven't really kept up with it since I got locked out of my original account once they switched to Yahoo. I can only imagine the amount of trash that would get uploaded with everyone getting essentially and unlimited amount of space. I always enjoyed the quality I could find there and it seems like they are trying to get back to that.
