It does make sense, though? If the developer has to work to change the product to work for new MacOS versions, because of API that Apple changed, the developer should be reimbursed for the development time, right?
- wordofx 2y agoSo you’re saying it’s better to stick to Windows or Linux where you don’t need to pay for an update when you wanted to stay on a specific version, just because your OS updated.
- XCSme 2y agoI am not sure how MacOS development works, and if apps are automatically compatible to new versions or not. I was not saying anything OS specific, just that if the developer has to actively work to implement changes, those development time should be paid for.
- wordofx 2y agoI’ve been burned twice with FCP. Happy on version X, updated macOS, run FCP and it fails with that it doesn’t work on this version, contact FCP and get told I have to pay for the latest version to work on that version of macOS. It seems like it’s just a version check. If it was a major version upgrade I would happily pay it. But even premiere pro never broke between OS version updates on macOS or windows. So it seems like a FCP thing.
