And this confronts me with a phenomenon that's been nagging me for a while: the quasi disappearance of a lot of free ebooks from Amazon.
When it comes to modern commercial ebooks the decline of permafree is by design. Amazon discourages permafree so authors have to backdoor by going wide and price matching do to permafree. Which means no Kindle Unlimited.

KDP select allows free books but only on sales, five days a month.

Authors have generally opted to go $0.99 and KU on their loss leader series books that would've been premafree in earlier times.
