I know about the new free plan, but no image manipulation or direct s3 uploads means I still have to rework on my code or pay. So you do if you use direct to s3 uploads.

I dont expect good stuff to be free, and Ink is indeed good, but i still think this goes into the dark pattern category. I bet there are many devs in our situation, and plenty will just pay.

I tend to agree. I just signed up for uploadcare.com, haven't tried them out, but the design seems very nice, and the their free tier allows up to 1k uploads a month - forever (got a very prompt response from the founder).

I just did the same. They seem like a reasonably good competitor, besides the fact that they offer less file sources. I just can't mentally justify filepicker's new pricing scheme.
