    The internet (ie bandwidth) is cheap, but running servers, providing documentation and tech support all costs a decent amount of money.

    However, treating an API as a profit center is a joke. These are literally companies developing software that makes the experience of owning a Tesla better. Making things unaffordable for those companies is putting short term profits over long term success of your product

      But 90k is nothing to Tesla, it’s just a paywall to keep the third party devs put while being able to claim to be open

        while being able to claim to be open

        Marketing is happy while dafdy gets to squeeze

        Anyway, look at their actions, not their propaganda
