I definitely understand your concern, Adrian. I was mostly sharing why subscribers like me might not renew a membership, mostly when we only needed occasional refreshes on various topics.
I will keep Blender Market bookmarket, it might be the compromise to learn from you and still support your work.
One of the reason it’s crucial for me to have files and videos stored in my external hdd is because I use a tool called Stagsi (stagsi.com) and I tag every file or sequences in a video to better search and find them later.
