SaaS vs. Free Ads: Why is everything locked behind a subscription paywall?

Hey makers,

It seems like every micro-utility today is forcing users into a $9/month SaaS subscription model. Even simple invoice makers lock your client lists or history logs after 3 invoices.

For OnlyBills (https://onlybills.netlify.app/), I decided to keep 100% of the features free, including unlimited history, backups, and client records. To support the hosting and development, I'm displaying clean, non-intrusive ad banners.

My question to the community:

Does clean UI actually make boring tasks (like tax invoicing) enjoyable?

Hey community,

Most business/tax billing software looks like it was designed in 2012 clunky grids, grey layouts, and confusing tabs.

For my upcoming tool, OnlyBills (https://onlybills.netlify.app/), I tried a different route: a clean, Apple-inspired theme with glassmorphism, responsive horizontal scroll controls, and seamless dark modes.

My theory is that clean aesthetics make mandatory administration work feel less like a chore.

Makers: What is your favorite way to handle offline/local user data?

Hey everyone,

I'm preparing to launch OnlyBills (https://onlybills.netlify.app/) on Product Hunt soon. It's a completely free GST invoice generator.

To ensure 100% privacy, the app stores everything locally on the client-side. I've also implemented a Local Backup & Restore feature where users can download/upload a single .json file containing their profile and history data.

Since this is my first time relying entirely on local storage for a tool, I d love to ask the makers here:
