I've seen those scammers around and they can be sneaky.
Peakd is adding some paid features. I'm not bothered about the AI stuff, but maybe I'll need more image storage. The cost is pretty low really. They have costs to cover, so I don't blame them and have given them some beneficiary rewards. It's a small price to pay for the service they provide. We still have choices when it comes to what front end we use.
