Happy paying customer for 2 or 3 years now. I'll probably be downgrading to free because it definitely supports my needs with these upgrades.

This is a strange view of business: Take what people are happy to pay for, then give it to them for free.

They can probably make more with ads and the new fee to disable said ads.
I'd love to see the CPM they get that beats $24/yr from an infrequent user like me. I use it as a storage site and visit it extremely rarely. Maybe I'm an outlier.
Nope, you're like me, another happy paying user. However, I'll pay $25 if I'm grandfathered in. But with how much more engaging the design is, I'll be sure to visit more often
