Yeah but with the macroeconomics nowadays, this is not a good time to be losing users.

Business and the economy is doing pretty good atm tho. I feel like the whole reason for all these blatant cash grabs so many companies are doing rn, is because they made so much money last year they want to keep getting that much richer every year, which is plain stupid from a long term perspective if you ask me

Interest is high which is why you are seeing pushes from all these companies to monetize and generate revenue. Borrowing money isn't cheap or near-free anymore, and investors are on their backs.
