I recently purchased the plugin on CodeCanyon with the expectation that I would be able to update it at any time and only purchase additional support if I needed it. I understand that the plugin requires ongoing development and support, but changing it to a subscription-based model right after my purchase feels unfair.
To be honest, it feels almost misleading, because had I known about this upcoming change, I would not have bought it. On CodeCanyon I expected lifetime updates, as this is usually the standard there.
The new subscription model makes the plugin unattractive and too expensive for me. I’m quite frustrated, especially since I bought it only recently. I would prefer to receive a refund so I can look for another plugin that better fits my expectations.
