  • While I don’t need constant updates, the app is only a little over 2 years old now, has been 1y9m since the last update, and has in-app purchases of up to $100 to support it. Going silent is fine but “always been like that” when this is gap of time for updates is unprecedented? I may come back if I hear it’s been updated, but it’s having problems as a result of updates to the instances I frequent.



  • Are you me? This is exactly what I needed too because I was on Sync for years now and had no idea development stopped. Started to notice a lot of small issues here and there with it and finally saw there’s been no updates on almost 2 years.

    I tried Voyager and I liked the gestures for votes and being able to customize things pretty well. Also trying out Boost right now and I like how familiar it is to me since I used it on Reddit, but now I’m missing the gestures.



  • Yeah most all the purchased multi-year certificates are actually just subscriptions to multi-year renewals. There’s a reason that most people are using Let’s Encrypt instead though, because unless you need to sign an application, or use it in a firewall with deep packet inspection, or have higher security on the certificate, then going free with automatic renewals is actually better.

    One suggestion would be to run a server with a built-in ACME client like Caddy. As long as you have a DNS A record pointing to your server, it can automatically answer the HTTP challenge and issue the certificate and automatically renew it without any further maintenance.
