Features locked behind a new account on every site
Most features now require registering an account, and users must sign up again on every new website.

What's going wrong
Some long-time users of this image optimization plugin report that most features are now locked until they register an account. Because they manage many websites, they find it tedious to sign up again for each new install, and one says they will stop using the plugin altogether. Agencies and freelancers are most affected, since every client site adds another signup step. The opportunity is a single license key that activates features across many sites without repeated registration, or a lightweight alternative that needs no account at all.
