I definitely agree with you. Users are left with external solutions if they don't want to have their database increase to the point it becomes a necessity to buy more disk space from their web hosts. When I updated from joomla 3 to joomla 4, I was not aware that it could become a disaster (my web hosts temporarily closed my account because I had exceeded my database limit). I realized it was because of the Smart search indexing my 1,000 articles (which is not an excessive amount btw!). Such a bad surprise! In the forums, I was advised to find alternative solutions to the native one, which I find really disappointing and counterproductive, as it used to work perfectly. Why change that without fully considering the implications it might have?
