1) it's optional as long as it's not a practical requirement to efficiently get a project. it drives the division between new and established freelancers. I get that being a Plus already, you don't care 2) criticizing uw is a weird way of defending fiverr, but ok. 3) your last sentence proves you haven't gotten the point. sellers do add commission to the price, that's obvious necessity. and that's what drives buyers away. and that's what will drive sellers away. see where it's going?

According to the new annual report, fiverr increased take rate to 31.8%, including freelancer's costs of promoted gigs and seller plus subscriptions. I bet shareholders like that but as a user, both buyer and seller, I'm telling you, this is unsustainable. As much as I'd love for fiverr to be my main workspace, I can only afford it as a supplement to my freelance business. And I wasn't surprised by the 5% loss of active users that fiverr also reported. No other platform drains it's users so heavily. Or am I missing something?

this feature is useless for me. hundreds of clicks per month. I had 1 or 2 sales in a YEAR. just kids browsing through the ads I guess. waste of money.
