    Considering Intuit in general and what we’re going through now, why do you feel a paid product is a bad thing? It’s as the adage goes, if the product is free then you’re the product. Intuit apparently couldn’t make Mint profitable enough to justify keeping it alive.

    A paid product doesn’t need to sell your data to keep the servers and integrations going and to fund development.

    The age of free hosted apps for everything is ending if you’re the least bit privacy or security conscious.

    Admittedly, I haven’t looked into YNAB yet, so if they don’t do hosting or bank integrations then I agree with the subscription model hate.
