Putting a price on memories is ridiculous and incredibly dystopian. No one should have to forfeit their beloved and treasured photos and videos of loved ones and their life because they can’t/don’t want to pay the absurd fee that Snapchat is taxing them on.
I’ve had Snapchat since 2017. Over the years, I’ve watched myself grow up through those snaps celebrating milestones, sharing laughs, and cherishing moments with people who mean so much to me. These aren’t just photos or videos they’re pieces of my life, memories I can never get back.
Now, Snapchat is asking us to pay for storage just to hold onto these memories. I’ve tried deleting old, unnecessary snaps to make room, but the app freezes or fails to delete them. It’s frustrating, yes but what’s truly heartbreaking is the thought that our most treasured memories, moments with loved ones who are no longer with us, could be lost forever because of a paywall.
This isn’t just an inconvenience. It’s a loss of history, a loss of connection, and a loss of the people we’ve loved and grown with. We need a solution that respects the memories of everyone who has trusted Snapchat with their lives. These are moments we shouldn’t have to pay to keep.
I am not tech savvy AT ALL. I need cash to be able to pay for my purchases and to budget my money. Cards & eftpos attract sneaky surcharges, which make it more expensive for everything all round! We are experiencing hard times and we need to have access to our own cash free of charge, which does not attract a surcharge. And we need a cash mandate for all stores and all purchases NOW. how disgusting is the Commonwealth Bank charging three dollars for people to get their own money out over-the-counter🤯 that is despicable and disgustingly dishonest. They are stealing our money, this should be outlawed!!!!!
We travel Australia by road and air regularly, spending money in small regional towns along the way. Cash has been essential on many occasions as EDTPOS facilities in regional and remote areas are down with alarming regularity. Without cash both the businesses and travellers go without when EFTPOS goes down for any of a myriad of reasons. Cash is essential.
