Personal License no longer has cloud credits?

Personal License no longer has cloud credits?

Not applicable

Just a bit of feedback:  I have been learning about & using the various simulations Fusion 360 has to offer and today finally came around to upgrading my license hobbyist license to a personal license.  Unfortunately I have discovered a nasty surprise: personal license's no longer offer unlimited cloud credits!  This makes a single event simulation $15 to run and shape optimization $5 to run, which is too much for a hobbyist like myself to pocket. 

I realize running these servers are probably expensive and that I should be thankful to even have access to such high quality software for free.  But it definitely leaves a poor taste in my mouth to be suddenly cutoff from certain features.  Makes me wonder what's coming next. 

I would urge the Fusion 360 team to reconsider a cheaper/slower option that might be more attainable to hobbyists, or perhaps offer a local simulation option for these more computationally expensive simulations.

Thanks
