Unlikely. Speaking for myself, I have decided to drop support for MacOS starting with Catalina. I might still provide an experimental built, but it's just too much of a pain in the ass to support the platform long-term. I've been doing this for 20 years and almost every OS upgrade there is some kind of trouble or unnecessary things to do. I'm not in it for the money anyway, but to be honest, I really doubt that MacOS support is worth it for most small companies.
- droithomme 7y agoWe've supported some products that have been on the MacOS platform since the late 1980s. Catalina compatibility is not going to happen and there will be no further development. It's been too much time treading water and hasn't been profitable for sometime even though we are the preeminent application in our domain and none of our competitors are replacements. Customers have been, are, and will be following us to the Windows version. Good software takes 10 years. Great software takes 20 years. If you have to spend all your time rewriting though just to stay in place it never gets great. Instead you just introduce instabilities and incompatibilities for no good reason other than fashion and hardware sales for a competitor.
