    I think that subscription price is way outrageous than it should be, maybe something like $5/month would play better if you’re getting something new from known product.

    Hmmm..mixed feelings about a Facebook exec leading genealogy company. I hope that Deb Liu uses technology for good and follows through with her aspiration to use sensitive information with integrity. Understanding our genealogy can be so impactful to social ideals and barriers to equity. I wish her well and look forward to watching how she enhances the company and provides opportunities to foster community connections in the user experience .
