Just wondering what anyone might be moving to after the news broke?

    Ew. Can’t say I’m super surprised, though. IIRC, the dev started pushing to further monetize these apps a while back by making the original versions harder to access. I mean, getting money for their work isn’t a bad thing, of course, but those are some gross and uncaring ways to do it.

      Considering, he was frequently giving away the apps on sale for free. I wondered how did he make money. I guess he did not and later changed his stance and decided to sell them away. Fortunately, they were open source so forks can continue to exist.
