Nope.

You're always welcome to also run it yourself. https://github.com/nylas/n1

does this mean that the free version won't be available anymore? Only the developer one?

There's a 30-day trial to use a version where the hosting is paid for by Nylas. After that point you need to upgrade to Pro in order for us to keep running the server infrastructure for you, and also to get features that depend on Nylas Cloud APIs.

The sync engine is open source, so you can also spin up a VPS on AWS, DigitalOcean, etc. and manage it yourself there.

I started using Nylas because I find it cleaner than other programs and somehow setting a gmail account was easier. Besides this, I don't do much else with an email client than reading email, so all these new features are something that I don't really need and I don't feel like paying this much just to have a nicer interface

That's fine-- you're not our target user then. :) Hopefully you'll still get some benefit from the open source stuff!
