In those situations, I always ask where is their business model and
does it align with my aspirations for long-term use of an app.

When I first got a Mac in 2003 I bought a ridiculously expensive mail
client called MailSmith, then when I had to move to IMAP another called
MailMate, because it had a similar philosophy and aesthetic. I'm also a
MailMate *subscriber* and don't regret a penny.

Obviously everyone's priorities differ.
