A one-time payment used to be a draw. Now I wonder how long my lifetime access will last until I need a subscription. (TextExpander, Sketch, 1Password, Ulysses, for example)
- SketchySeaBeast 2y agoOr even just when support ends. "It's been two years, time to buy the new version!"
- cm2012 2y agoI think it would be absurd to expect continuous updates from something you paid for once.
- SketchySeaBeast 2y agoSure, but I want to know how long do I have it for. Six months? A year? Five years?

- brailsafe 2y agoIronically, I just started playing around with the newest version of Sketch on their free trial, having bought Version 3 way back or something. And... the performance and UI reliability seems to be wildly worse than ever. Pretty disappointed so far. Features have certainly improved, but when I close a sub menu for colour picking or font selection, the menu doesn't go away. Dragging a selection between artboards is choppy as hell, and it doesn't even seem to be using that much ram. It's like they shot themselves in the foot trying to compete with Figma on the collaboration aspect; while the collab functionality seems fine, the main interface is just getting me down. I am still using 1password 6 standalone though, fuck em it's fine for me.
