There needs to be more offered to the free tier for (esp as most in this cat. are students and poorer creative-types) with limited resources 💻🎨. Who agrees?!..    Adobe staff, please take note 👀. How about hosting a better free tier by allowing users to opt-in to ads and get twice the amount of generative compute per month? 💡 There are so many talented creative-types out there with very little money to afford a package, but they can offer their usage data to you in return, which is also valuable for a company like Adobe. User data and user interactions collected are literally worth money 💰, let's not forget that.    So here's my suggestion: provide an ad-supported free tier with expanded resources 🙌 Make Abode better for its users, please!...  Who agrees with this idea?!

@Kevin Stohlmeyer, - Thank you for your insights. While Student CC subscribers do enjoy discounts, the reality is that many find even these discounted rates a significant stretch over the long term.  I just feel that it would make strong business sense for Abode to Introduce a "Free+ tier" especially for the Firefly product , supported by ads, could be a highly pivotal move.   Let's break it down:  It's about more than access; it's about devising a model where free-tier users, who likely constitute the majority of Firefly's user base, can contribute through ads or similar 'feedback' means.  This approach could ensure commercial viability and a larger user-base is surely a win-win for the marketing budget/aspect too, - while embracing broader inclusivity, thus granting wider access to the product and promoting organic consistent growth.  Broader access is essential for a tool as potent as Firefly.  If Adobe's team is tuning in, could you illuminate this possibility?... 

 

@kevin stohlmeyer , - and others, your insights on inclusivity are important.  If you've followed the discussion thus far, your participation is most welcome.

@JJC1992 Student CC subscribers get more credits than a free account. Firely is trained on Adobe Stock and copyright free assets - Adobe will not train the AI on user data even if offered voluntarily. This allows them to offer this as commercially safe.
