Intentionally chose an open ecosystem for the smart relays in my house, now they crippled the app adding a $4 subscription - eviltoast

If you don’t pay a subscription you can’t see the history of use, it’s limited to the latest 5 events. When I bought the ten devices (=I paid 150 euro for the hardware), it was 100 events

    Just like how BMW and Tesla made basic car features a subscription, soon phone and hardware companies will make some features a subscription as well. People need to stop being sheep and stop buying products from such companies, but the way it is now, it’s too high an expectation.
