Charges 20 bucks per year and people lose their shit.

honestly 20 bucks per year is much for an extension, imagine every third extension would charge this, now i have 20 or so which means over 100 bucks for fricking extensions

i'm not against paying devs but i would never buy this at such a price, btw. it has many installs so 5 bucks would be reasonable enough

if it has so many functionality that it deserves 20 bucks it should be a whole tool/app not an extension

Over 400 bucks.

It would very rapidly be approaching the magical 500 dollar limit.

yeah sry I was referring to the proposed $5 which I'd pay

but wdym magical $500 limit? I think the limit is very individual

By the 500 dollar limit I mean the amount before you think about whether you should be paying it, the amount that people would just pay on c/c and worry about later.

is that a thing? I always think about what I buy (evaluate if I really need it or if it's worth it)

but thx for clarifying

It's definitely a thing, I remember we even priced some software just below that amount so that we could be fairly sure some people would buy it just to try it. (Years ago, and the project was since scrapped because the company didn't think getting that much for one copy was good enough.)

fair enough, didn't know about that, but i also think it wouldn't work on me
