Piazza Update Late last year Piazza anounced they were moving to paid model from 1st January 2021 with an ad-supported model for non-licensed users/institutions. In response to negative community feedback, Piazza announced on December 23 that they would not implement an ad-supported model for 2021. Instead, the free version of Piazza will include a donation request prompt for all users, similar to Wikipedia s donation request message. See Paid model for Piazza Q&A. It is important to communicate to students that they are under no obligation to donate and there is no change to their experience if they donate or not. Example contribution message 5
