At least. The paid users will need to compensate for the free users. Not everyone will pay, so they need to ask if the user base will drop by 80%, what do we need to charge the 20% to maintain their revenue.
OK, but do I get a blue tick?
Except they are not forcing you to pay. You can still use it as it is right now.
Why would paid users need to compensate for free users? This is a per user choice between ad personalization or a monthly fee. The “free” users will still be generating revenue the existing way.
I misread how it was being done.
That said, for the price, I’d expect it to be ad free, not just no personalization.
The paid version is ad-free.
The free version still has all the ads.
Both will generate revenue.
