most businesses have misaligned incentives with you. so go support the ones that choose to align - it will benefit both of you in the long run.
lately we've had a huge influx of new players coming to popflash who just expect it to be free.
we need to adjust our psychology if we want beautiful experiences to exist.
free means YOU are the product, it means the platforms WILL NOT survive.
at popflash we charge a nominal fee and that keeps us afloat. it means we get to keep doing this for as long as you keep supporting it.
we don't sell your data, we don't invade your privacy, and we don't show you advertisements.
we charge you a fee and you get the platform. that's it. end of transaction.
