Then you have to self host.
Mealie is basically the same thing as Paprika, so once you've dropped money and time into your home lab it isn't an issue. Except for maintenance and electricity.
Expecting a company to host your information indefinitely without ever seeing a dime after the initial $5 purchase is wildly entitled.
If they deliberately design their thing to cloud host your data as a vendor lock-in strategy, they're the entitled ones!
Absolutely fuck them and everyone who makes excuses for them!
Well then, I guess you have to do the work yourself and build your own app.
Paprika is a great app, wanting to crush small developers by demanding their work be free forever is such a loser mindset. God forbid you pay 80 cents a month for an ad free app that you find useful.
You're probably the kind of person who orders from grubhub 4 times a month for the convenience, knowing full well that you could order directly from the business for a fraction of the cost.
First of all, IDGAF about Paprika. I've never used it and never will. I use a proper GPL recipe app (Broccoli).
Second, accusing me of using scammy shit like Grubhub is libelous fighting words and I demand a goddamn apology!
Then price accordingly or don’t exist. I’m sick and tired of being bled dry every month by a thousand paper cuts of subscriptions.
Why would you expect or need Paprika to host anything?
I personally find ~$10/year a good compromise of supporting the dev and on-going development/maintenance, and my default objection to subscriptions. But make no mistake, the cost isn’t going to hosting infrastructure.
Because that's what it does...
After you scrape the recipe, it's stored on your where you can edit it and save versions as you tweak the recipe. Same with adding your own recipes to it.
I know what it does; my wife and I use it often. I guess I don’t see why it defaults to or needs proprietary cloud storage. It’s a recipe app for gods sake.
How do you think the recipe goes from the device you use to the device your wife uses?
As we both use iOS devices, iCloud would’ve been the native solution and my assumption.
Paywalling most features on the assumption everyone will want or need cross-platform syncing is simply a revenue maximizing move, although like I said $10/year is reasonable. But coming full circle, my point that Paprika needs to host anything (except for cross platform syncing only) is my objection.
