Quite interesting, the total lack of interest in myBase on bits: Not only it disappeared after just 1 day, but especially, 3 comments on bits in all, which is extremely low, even compared with other, quite “lesser” tools there that often generate about 30 comments or more there, and especially with other outliners on sale there.

This indicates that what I say above on the VISUAL ascpect of myBase (and what the commentator says about it in the cnet link above) both is correct more or less, and is an important factor in the buying decision for such software today, since we convened that technically, myBase is not bad at all, and in fact it is quite one of the “heavyweights”. But its APPEAL is substandard.

This is certainly an important lesson for developers in general, all the more so since we (and they) don’t get any numbers from anyone: Nobody knows even approximate “installation numbers” for any outliner (let alone “active installations” where the user buys updates), except the respective developer for his own one.
