Do remember to mention, that they also have limited space and functionality… So free, yeah, but only for minimal users…
What do you expect? A company giving you stuff without getting a profit from your usage? Gmail profits by using your data. Disroot eg doesn’t get anything from your usage. They loose a small amount of money per user per time, since the serivce is really free.
Why don’t pay if you need more? If the provided features aren’t enough for you, or you need more storage, you can pay them for using more ressources. Thats very fair! And still they don’t collect your data or show ads even when you pay like Gmail. BUT paying users pay for those who can’t and rely on the free service.
To me, thats more than fair to have a 100% free service like that. Why everyone expects stuff to be free everywhere? Just because big companies lure users with cost free services but you pay with time and data? If you don’t want to pay with your time or data, you have to pay with money!
