In such cases, the promise of a free offer acts as the “bait” to attract customers. Once interested, customers discover that the free offer is unavailable, limited, or insufficient, and are then encouraged or required to purchase a paid version—the “switch.” “
feel free to go somewhere else if you don't like or value what we offer. And I guess you know that our tools like the Alby Hub are FOSS?!

oh such kind words. how do you expect being able to put all the resources in to build and run these tools? You want others to pay for the resources that you use and if you have to do a slight change then you scream "shame on you"? Run it on a $20 Pi and everything works. If that's too much or somebody else provides better or cheaper services then go there.

I expect not being scammed and Alby pulled bait and switch scam, I have confirmed it with my AI overlords, including o1, and they also agree it’s scam let’s agree to disagree
