We're being hit with huge, unexplained price increases — some seeing their annual subscription jump by 82% or more. This feels like a slap in the face, especially for those of us running small portfolio or personal sites. Many of us are now actively migrating to cheaper alternatives or self-hosting.

I got charged $395 - originally paid $99. I canceled. They gave me a full refund.
My renewal fee next year will be $165 instead of $204, although that's still an increase from the $136 I renewed for earlier this summer. Very frustrated.
Same boat, my bog standard photography site was originally $16 per month and is $35 now I think, upping sticks and relocating is the ball ache business plan of so many tech companies.
