What great turn of events, thank you for reconsidering! You have my money. :)

Old post (now incorrect):
> Can I use one license on two computers?
> No. It sucks, but that is the only way to prevent abuse.
The editor looks great, but this sucks to the extent that this won't work for me at all, unfortunately. Parallels' old-school licensing theme meant I'm dropping them as well. This is not about the value of the product or the price itself, $25 seems more than fair if this meets my needs, regardless of open-source alternatives.
I, and I suspect many others, develop on multiple computers, sometimes on a single day. If you worry about "enterprise abuse", perhaps consider a commercial license. Or add a higher priced tier that is per user, not per device. I think (i.e I don't actually know) there's a reason editors such as Sublime Text have per-user licenses (to be fair its price tag is also four times that of Zas Editor).
Are people actually abusing per-user, "honor" licenses that much nowadays? And here I'm thinking about difficult-to-verify customers who are willing to pay in the first place.
- Annili 4y agoWe realized how big of a mistake that was. We updated the server and the website. It is now possible to use one license on multiple computers. edit: We would appreciate if you could mention that your comment in case someones reads your's without reading this one.
- LeoNatan25 4y agoThis just shows how important first impression is, and how difficult it is to rebuild trust after that. Asking people to delete their comments/reviews is not a good approach.
- seanw444 4y agoYou can't expect everyone to have perfect judgement on the first go. They admitted a mistake openly, and they're simply asking for that to be reflected in a top comment. Otherwise what's the point of admitting a mistake if few people notice it's been amended?
- LeoNatan25 4y agoI’m not saying not to admit a mistake. I’m saying that such a trivial mistake should not have happened in the first place. Who’d have known that people might have several Macs and would want to use a code editor on several of them?

- Intermernet 4y agoI think it would be better if they add an edit to the beginning of the comment. The transparency of your reply and admission of a mistake is actually a very good signal to many of us. I trust people who own their mistakes.
