• For some reason, the Pro version counts how many photos you have in your WordPress (strange, considering this is not an API Service), and you pay based on tiers.

    To have unlimited images in your WordPress, you need to pay $1,200/year.

    The explanation by the developer as to why this is the case is not any bit reassuring:

    Why a count of offloaded media?∞

    Strange, right? Most WordPress plugins are limited to a certain number of sites, so why is this one using the number of offloaded media items? It turns out to be more fair…

    Let’s say you have 3 small WordPress sites. The Bronze license would probably serve you well. While a big site like TechCrunch would need a much bigger license. That’s fair.

    Now lets imagine licenses were limited by number of sites instead (like most other WordPress plugins): Bronze 1 site, Silver 2 sites, Gold 5 sites, etc. TechCrunch would only need a Bronze license while you would need Gold. Boo-urns.

    So for the smallest Pro package, you’re expected to pay $70/year to manage 2,000 photos LOL.

    I can get a developer on Fiverr to build me this functionality using ChatGPT in a day or two, and have unlimited with no renewal fee.

    How is that going?

    It goes well. There is an free open-source community maintained version of this service. It’s more geared towards developers than the public.

    Be aware that css,javascript and fonts is not working even with the paid version. I think they have other “plans”/packages/metals upgrades if you want css/js upload. Total ripoff. Stay away & stay safe
