Thanks for the heads up; saved me from being intrigued by this project.

  This kind of comment is typical for someone who does not have to contend with business reality and has no idea how much it costs to develop and maintain native desktop applications. My guess is that the same people, when given a native app, complain about the subscription pricing or the price tag.

    Oh I understand the business reality very well and I don't blame anyone for making that call when it's the right move for them, but I'm still not going to use the software. And I happily pay for all of the quality native software I can find. One of the most exciting things is finding a well-crafted native application with a clear business model. I'm really hoping Serif, for example, moves into the Photo organization space. I've already purchased all of their current apps even though I don't really need them all that much; probably 70% of the reason I bought them was just to support what they're doing.
