<p>Hi, <a href="https://twitter.com/kehers">Opeyemi</a> here.</p>
<p>As we make changes to build a better service in the new year, TheFeed Press will be stop being a free service. Starting this month, the service will cost $5/quarter (less than $2/month). The first 3 months will be free.</p>
<h4>What does that mean for me?</h4>
<p>No, you are not paying right away. You have till April to (3 months free). Between now and then, we hope to be able to convince you it is worth it (if you are not convinced already). We will be releasing a couple of features and mobile apps for better discovery of content shared in your feed. By the way, the v1 of the Android app is available on <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=press.thefeed.thefeedpress">Google Play</a> already.</p>
<h4>Can’t it be free?!</h4>
<p>Running the service costs money (tools, services, infrastructure, development time, etc). There are ways to shift that cost from the users but the options will compromise the primary goal of the service or our core beliefs. An option for example is to make it completely free and monetise via ads (sponsored posts within your feed) but interrupting your feed with some random link (no matter how related) breaks the experience we would want users to have using the service. What's more, your privacy is very important to us—you are not the product.</p>
<p>Have a happy new year!</p>
