Sketch too. I recently re-downloaded it and they said "You can download anything up to version [x]"

  Sketch has been like that for a while. The app now has a special licensing setup that restricts your installs to two machines. Sketch made a thing about leaving the App Store. But the App Store licensing and update process was way better than what it has evolved to.

      Sketch customer service recently described it to me: "Your [sketch] license can accommodate up to 2 devices — one for each seat you've purchased, plus an extra one we offer as a special perk." I had to reply specifically calling out that this was not a special perk. I've paid the full license price at least three times. It should be available to install on as many machines as I want if I'm the only one using it. It is Sketch's job to catch when someone is abusing this and create tech to handle that. I think that this is actually not about preventing privacy, it is to try and get people to move to their cloud product.
