Google Photos on Android now has some effects behind paywall... I guess hackers jailbreaking the iPhone 1 and making Apple start the app store for "commoners" (iirc their idea was it'd be a place for big corporations) was a bad idea after all.
On the topic of paywalls, I have a blood pressure measuring device with Bluetooth connectivity. Their original app was decent, but it got discontinued. Their new app also puts features behind paywalls... and I just looked again, they're even offering to fucking gamifying measuring my blood pressure, giving me reward points for using the device, exchangeable for... who knows what?
