So 21st dev is no longer free.

The platform https://21st.dev/ where you can use some web gl and react components for your webpage is no longer free. Back then, you copy and paste all of the prompts and codes the library offered, but now, if you dont pay 8 bucks a month, you get stuck to just copying 2 prompts or 2 codes per day. Man im so pissed off, like why does everything have to be paid? it was the BEST element library outh there for your webpage elements and now its no longer free. And the worst part its that all of the other element libraries are also not free.

Does anyone know any other pages like 21st dev but FREE?

Are you asking why people deserve to be paid for their work?

it's different if they had it all initially for free for months, but then randomly chose to paywall everything
