Big difference is you weren't being paid! I had a free and ad-free app on Android and I got some abuse about missing features. I took it down after a while. The sense of entitlement was unreal. Now if I was making $50k a day, I'd take all the abuse that could have been thrown at me!

Imagine that abuse and entitlement scaled up by 10000, would you still want the money?

Yes. I can stuff my ears with wads of $100 bills to cancel the noise from peasants.
