How about fuck your site? Forcing me to pay to increase my file size limit is stupid.

I hate it when fucking online video editors or converting sites force you to fucking pay for their service if you happen to exceed their stupid arbitrary file size limitations. If I am uploading a long-ass video, this is a fucking problem. The thing is, the file could go over 1, or maybe even 2 gigs in size for just an entire almost-hour-length video at fucking 1080p quality. The thing is, these fucking sites love to impose unfair limitations on you just to get you to buy their fucking services. At this point, as soon as I see any fucking video editor or converter that is online and "free" and has any sort of fucking pricing link I immediately click off of it because I know how shitty the limitations probably are. One site only has a stupid fucking 100 MB file size limit. It cannot even pass a single kilobyte in size pass the 100 MB limit. Even a single kilobite is enough to force you to fucking pay. I'm sick of this bullshit. And stop recommending me Davinci Resolve thousands upon thousands of times. I am fucking aware of its goddamn existence. Discord is even worse. You don't have Nitro? Then fuck you, 8 MB file size limit. Good luck, douchebag. Oh, and even if you do fucking pay for the stupid Nitro shit on Discord, you still only get a fucking 100 MB file size limit. It's fucking stupid that sites can be so fucking overly restrictive with how big the files can be. Look, I've seen YouTube videos uploaded longer than a whole hour (sometimes even longer than 10 hours) and YouTube doesn't do this fucking bullshit. The only fucking reason these fucking sites do this is because all they fucking want is you to give the fuck in and pay for their services. All they want is fucking money. If you're gonna be overly restrictive with your bullshit file size limitations then expect no money from me. Online video editors and online converters that force me to fucking pay just to increase my fucking file limit can fucking suck it, they're not getting a single fucking dime from me.

All freeware has disappeared for some reason. 10 years ago it was usually very easy to find a free program to suit your needs. Now literally everything that's not open-source requires payment, even the few things still labeled "free". And anything that was always paid is now way more expensive than it used to be, yet also has less features. I don't know what's driving it. The good news is that the open-source world has made some huge strides since then. But it's still held back by programmers designing the UI, which is almost never a good idea.

At the same time 90% of websites online started requiring a paid subscription or force you to log in. This never happened to me before except the occasional paywall, but now I struggle to access anything. Even reddit is making you log in now unless you use the old version, which I suspect is going away soon. And that's bad for me because I'm not even allowed to log into most of my accounts anymore because the admins changed the passwords.

And Discord is terrible. They'll ban you just for being in a server, and even they can't undo it if it was a mistake because for some reason they permanently delete it. And if you need anything afterwards they tell you to fuck off and kill yourself. They're even worse than reddit, apparently every single one of their admins is a pedo furry.
