Unfortunately I can't do this request. I need to pay operating expenses like servers, backups and salary.
It would be possible if we release an offline version of Raindrop.io. But I don't have any ETA for this.
Sorry.

Rustem Mussabekov: nevermind, we get that. thank you for your reply :)
Also please, would it be possible to remove the text-lenght limit in the description (or increase it)? Sometimes i need to do some detailed descriptions and there is a text limit.....

I like Life Time subscriptions as a way to support startup companies and have less hassle tracking all these recurring small payments (in particular if the bank statement doesn't reflect the name of the product but some company name that doesn't ring a bell).
Unfortunately my philanthropic approach has had its setbacks as some developers after a couple of years ditched their product while suggesting to "upgrade" to their latest (very similar) software.
Alternatively, optional and as a compromise it could be made possible to pay like 10 years in advance. The developer receives money in advance, the user bears the risk the program will not receive the support he/she/... hopes for but gets the product at a reduced fixed price and doesn't need to bother about payments every year.

I don’t agree with this at all, these kind of services need a continuous work and costs of maintenance, it’s ok for me to pay some dollars monthly, I just need to see if the service is useful and if it’s actually supported by developers

I think the subscription model would be more acceptable if there were signs of the devs still being active and supporting the product. Unfortunately, that does not seem to be the case.

This should be an option!

I would pay for this. I really like nested collections.

This post is not about the price, but about monetization model. Many companies use hybrid monetization - Apple, JetBrains etc. I would like to pay for raindrop.io, but I just don't like recurring payments. It's ok for me if payed-once features come with little-or-no support and if not all features are available that way. It's ok for me to pay per upgrade.

Denis Sherstennikov: I think you’d be hard-pressed to find a SaaS company with a one-time payment option.
Apple doesn’t charge for their software; if you’re talking about apps or music, that’s not Apple’s pricing. JetBrains is definitely subscription only.

Denis Sherstennikov: If you wanted the software without the sync, yeah, I could see that, but, like Apple, if you want to do anything more than sync contacts & calendar, then you are likely to pay for iCloud Storage to SYNC your info. (I realized after-the-fact that this is a really old post)

I would gladly pay a one time $100 fee, no way I'd ever pay monthly (okay unless it was $1.00/$0.99, sure).

Dropbox/Google sync does not work at the moment so you pay $20 and get nested collections only!!! + Support for this product does not exist...Shocking...

I think it's a fair price for the value that's beneficial to me.
