Pricing Feedback for Hobbiest
I’m very appreciative that you are keeping the free tier, as I expect my usage to fit within those limits as I experiment with Neon. But I also wanted to share a persona and use case for me as a hobbiest/casual user.
I’m happy to pay for usage if I exceed the free tier because this does really cost you money to host, but I would only provide my credit card if there was a hard limit on spending. E.g. happy to spend $10/month so long as it can’t exceed that threshold. I know there are defensive things I can do with the regular paid plans to have a soft threshold, but as a casual consumer I don’t want to spend the time and effort to implement those limiters. I’d rather get my functionality blocked or limited at the hard spending limit because that price threshold comes out of my personal budget and the implementation out of my nights and weekends.
