Lifetime deals, one-time payments or subscriptions?

year 2 was tight ngl lol.

so we stopped selling screens and started renting them monthly

one-off sales → recurring revenue

now 245+ clients pay every month and that's what funds my solo projects... and life

i think a solo developer should price a mac app once and say so plainly. subscriptions make sense when the server cost grows with every user. when the work runs on the customer's own mac, one more user costs almost nothing.

tiny app ( update: people still mostly buy one-time image packs, not subscriptions

I guess for this kind of product people don’t want a relationship, they just want to know if they’ll look stupid with a buzz cut
