I was really disappointed about standard notes' plans. Took me forever to get everything set up to self host, only to find I couldn't even use markdown unless I bought a license? Silly.
Yeah, the value of buying a hosted service should be the fact you don't have to worry about hosting it yourself. Not a tiny piece of Javascript that was grabbed from a third party developer anyway.
I can see what they're trying to do, but the experience leaves a really bad taste in my mouth.
