I‘m a developer myself and i have the money, that is not the problem. I have no mac myself, so not a use case for me, but and don‘t get this wrong ... Design of the app is good, website is 10/10 ... but a subscription for a monitor control app is a hard sell. One time i would say:“well, why not. i use it and there is no better way“ but my lizard brain says:“23$ or euro every year for like 5 or 10 years ... thats money. Nope. One time developing it and a few minor fixes ... “ I have no idea how bad every mac os update f+++s with your app and maybe its a pain, but well lizard brain

Thanks for the explanation! But the thing is, it's not a subscription. If Lunar keeps working for you, you can avoid updating after the free period of updates ends. No need to pay again. If you don't upgrade your Mac hardware to something exotic (like the M1 upgrade), and if macOS doesn't pull the rug from under us, devs that play with the DDC protocol, then you won't need any updates. But Lunar is very dependent on the hardware, because it talks low-level I²C with the monitor controller. So if you upgrade, and I have to spend thousands of dollars on new hardware and months on reverse engineering it, I expect to be paid for it. You pay for the product as is now, not for my unlimited future time.
