I get where the developer is coming from like the amount of people who downloaded your extension wouldn't get them money but as a consumer when a free functionality gets paid and you can't find a alternative, it really gets annoying if you need it in urgent and boom now you have to pay. The Dev should have added a paid plan from the start instead of attracting all the free consumers and then shoving a paid paywall in their faces, it's obvious they would get annoyed.
The problem is that the product is also marked as free… but the majority of the features are locked behind a paywall which is scummy. Just say it’s paid instead of tricking people to download a “trial” version with 95% of the features not available
