weatherapi dropped free plan
As of https://www.weatherapi.com/pricing.aspx, weatherapi does not have a free plan anymore. I do not intend to pay for 2000000 calls per month, of which I will use a single digit amount. This basically disables the weather feature for me.
I'd like to open up again an idea of @abinadi in https://github.com/monicahq/monica/issues/3810#issuecomment-713124685 to support multiple weather APIs and let the admin choose.
(Also, if monica will just support one weather API at a time, +1 for openweathermap.)
There are a couple of online services that have free (or useful enough free tiers) that could be good alternatives:
- https://open-meteo.com/en
- https://developer.accuweather.com/apis
- https://openweathermap.org
I wasn't aware of this. Thanks for sharing that! We'll have to migrate.
Check the website; they do have a free version now.
