There are 3 business models for apps. 1. Free with ads 2. Subscription 3. Transaction fee The common thread for all three models is the user—a person, business or AI—has money to spend. That’s obvious for 2 and 3 since the model involves spending money directly with the app. But for 1, if your user base doesn’t have money to spend, the ability to monetize via ads will be low.

This user hates subscriptions. So much. I feel like people are getting tired of them but maybe that’s just because I’m still so mad at Adobe

Depends on what it is. I don’t mind ads for things I don’t use frequently. Fees feel right but I guess it depends on so many factors. What is the app? Are they distributed fairly? Maybe I wouldn’t mind a Spotify subscription if artists were getting a fair cut Wouldn’t mind paying a sub for an adobe-like product if my data wasn’t being used repurposed. I suppose I generally just don’t like what I’m paying for. If the monetization is fair, I don’t mind as much. It’s all feeling less fair over time
