I agree. In my no code class, I’d always teached how to use glide. This was actually my favorite part, now I have to find another app. It was just for educational purpose to eventually entice users to use glide afterwards. There’s no way, i’ll pay..
It’s a terrible business decision .

You can still use Glide for educational purposes, teach everything that is related to Glide, and even see what the finished app would look like in the layout editor. You would only lose the ability to publish the app and therefore use it in production, but that part isn’t necessary if you only need to demonstrate Glide.
i think the long notice period is very reasonable.
this move basically stops the free tier from being used for low volume production apps, forcing serious users to subscribe if they need external hosting. that is a typical pivot for SAAS platforms when the testing phase is done and they need to monetize server load.
