Feature scans:
- MTX: score 90; verdict: Predatory Monetization; summary: The user reviews highlight a significant shift in the software's monetization strategy, with a strong emphasis on locking essential and previously free features behind paywalls. This change has led to widespread frustration and a perception of greed among users. The software's accessibility and affordability have been compromised, particularly affecting new users and those with limited budgets. The repeated mention of paywalls and the restriction of basic quality-of-life features have contributed to a negative user experience and a sense of betrayal.
